PROJECT BAG LADY explores plastic’s cultural and historical impact through abstract compositions, sculpture, and product design. Once celebrated, plastic is now deemed toxic waste, with recycling systems failing and zero-waste movements growing. Rather than reject it entirely, I see this material as a catalyst for creativity—challenging us to reimagine how it can be used in alternative ways.
