About bottle caps and a general denial of reality.

I made this work in 2012. I filled a humming top with plastic objects found in the stomach of one albatross chick on Kure Atoll (Northwestern Hawaiian islands). 340 g. Cigarette lighters, plastic fragments, toys and mainly bottle caps.

There is a reason why the lids no longer come off the bottles!

[Swaantje Güntzel, stomach contents/340g, 2012, plastics, metal, 19,7 x 26,7 x 25,4 cm]

Realized with the help of Kure Atoll Conservancy.

〖偶然紙語〗紙漿雕塑May 29, 2025

🚧✨夏天就是熱到融化🫠💦

雖然不開冷氣已經很多年
但日常還是會使用塑膠或玻璃
不敢說創作能改變什麼，
至少有淨灘，出一份很小的力量。

施工中🚧✨海玻璃x紙漿 ✨

身為海島國家的居民，
台灣人們對海洋垃圾應該不陌生，

效果意外有趣 🌊🫙
