Original poem wanted for this artwork: Black Margate.
I created this artwork from raffia, netting, clothing labels, food packaging, and more, adhered to a board with nails and staples.
I'm placing artworks in little free libraries along with poems, inviting anyone who wants to write something. Please DM, PM, carrier pigeon me.

April is Earth Month, and many people around the world this year are focused on plastic pollution. With the fourth of five sessions of UN Plastics Treaty negotiations taking place in Ottawa, Canada, beginning on April 23, it is critical that key decision makers understand the urgent need to end plastic pollution at the source. It is now evident that plastic is toxic and is poisoning all people. Plastic pollutes throughout its existence, or “life cycle”— which begins with fossil fuel extraction and refining — and people living on the front lines of extraction, production, transportation, and disposal sites are especially harmed.
Join us on March 28 for our webinar Filtered Water: Preventing Billions of Plastic Bottles from Flooding U.S. Communities. During this event, we will discuss how proactive distribution of filters is a sustainable and affordable solution for providing clean water to the millions of people in the U.S. waiting to undergo the replacement of toxic lead pipes.
