Lee, Tristan, artist2017-11-282017-11-282017https://hdl.handle.net/10217/185095Colorado State University Art and Art History Department capstone project.Capstone contains the artist's statement, a list of works, and images of works.The artist's statement: Plastic Wastelands encompasses my perspective on current environmental issues depicting oil fracking, water pollution, and an overall sense of fear in abstracted sculptural forms. My use of polypropylene fibers in fine, complex weaving structures allows me to relate the idea of decay within our environment to any viewer - the language of textile is universal. While my art reflects my morbid and cynical nature, it also works to change the perspective of the audience by inviting any viewer to the conversation of human-induced climate change.born digitalStudent worksengCopyright and other restrictions may apply.
