Refuse to Sea is a light reactive exhibition that aims to bring to the foreground environmental concerns. Every year, 8 million metric tons of plastic end up in our oceans. It’s equivalent to five grocery bags filled with plastic for every foot of coastline in the world. In 2025, the annual input is estimated to be about twice greater, or 10 bags full of plastic per foot of coastline. Area artists have been prompted to create original art works composed of recycled and found materials that might otherwise end in our beautiful oceans.
Artists include Eric Brock, Kelvin Burzon, Jade Council , Tim Lynch and Larissa Danielle Wingate.
