Floated Away-
a on going series produced with recycled mylar balloons
A collaborative partnership with the Fishers Island conservancy that serves as a beautifully sickening project. The ongoing project has led to the public display and participation of over half a dozen pieces produced, with the mylar balloon. Initially created as a symbol of hope and happiness, they inevitably wreak havoc on the environment that they become entangled within. The process of collection and organization begun during quarantine, in which I collected the balloons and organized donations from other volunteers on Fishers Island. A special thanks to Micheal Klimziak with the Fishers Island Conservancy and Drew at Race Rock landscaping.
