Drift bottle 7

Plastic bottle, wood, fabric
21 x 21 x 34 cm

Is a plastic mineral water bottle containing the scale reproduction of a sailing ship. The title refers to the bottles that are thrown into the sea with information on the date and coordinates in order to track the movement of surface currents. This work is, at the same time, a message in a bottle, a world enclosed in a plastic bubble, and a distant reference to the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, the largest accumulation of plastic floating and moving in the Pacific Ocean.
