Flight

In this workshop, we started off thinking about the things that fly in the wind, but that are man made objects. This led me to think about how these objects affect the environment, especially plastic bags. Turtles eat plastic bags that go into the sea as they mistake them for jellyfish, causing them to suffocate. I wanted to make jellyfish out of plastic bags to symbolise the effect they have due to them being so similar. In experimenting with other ideas, we made a turtle kite out of wire and a plastic bag that had a jellyfish flying behind it.
