Through these works I am physically recreating packaging while addressing the packaging of concepts such as nature and wilderness.
I am both interested in how the materials I use move through the consumer economy and of how words and concepts like 'sustainability', 'ecological', recyclable and 'nature' move through the information economy.
Seen is a life-size drawing of the California Brown Pelican on a Barney's New York garment bag. The California Brown Pelican is currently being considered for removal from the Endangered Species Act after thirty years of protection allowed populations to rebound. This is a documentation of the drawn bird's reintroduction into its natural habitat after having achieved couture status via Barney's.
