See's Worker B

 

wearable sculpture made from recycled See's  chocolate packaging, plastic and fabric, size 8

 

Recycling in the form of wearable sculpture speaks volumes about our consumer waste that as a culture we rarely acknowledge. See's Worker B was designed to "slyly wink" at a culture that often compares women, particularly well-dressed women, to decorations, consumable, "eye candy." Initiating dialogue on packaging, brand association, and power structure, the artwork also directs a commentary on the gluttony and wastefulness of a disposable, packaged society.
