From Now to Eternity

Plastic Nostalgia by Raw Edges

Plastic Fandangoes by Committee

Exhibition about plastic - pros and cons. Some designers celebrating plastics versatility and others highlighting it's drawbacks. It was interesting. For some stuff we really need plastic. But it is misused alot too. And it is hard to recycle. I've been talking to a guy at an acrylic company and while they recycle everything internally, there is no system to collect acrylic from outside because if it contaminated with other plastics it will degrade the recycled product. I'm really mixed up over whether I should use acrylic or not...
