Project Wetlands

May 18

Located in the wetlands exhibit area at Northwest Trek Wildlife Park, this installation creates the illusion of being inside of a wetland while interpreting the important function of wetlands and the necessity to limit the use of plastic bottles. Visitors are immersed in this beautiful and solution-based piece in a setting where they can view and connect to the animals that are affected by this issue. The experience leaves them more open to taking tangible action to conserve wetlands and reduce their use of plastic bottles.

Dimensions: 10’X6’X12’

Medium: Upcycled plastic bottles, dyed water, steel rod.

Installation Date: August 2015

Collaborators: Northwest Trek Wildlife Park and park visitors.
