Daily Bread, 2019

The Daily Bread project consists of a constantly growing chain of repurposed plastic bread tags, kindly donated by many people in my local community. The work can be presented in various ways depending on the site and context. This iteration is nine metres long, and I continue to add to it over time.
Daily Bread is a visually festive celebration of reuse, but also reminds us of the seemingly endless production of everyday, single-use plastic.
