Giudecca Egg, Venice

In April, I made two large bi-dimensional Eggs from plastic waste at the ex Convent of SS Cosma & Damiano on the island of Giudecca, Venice. This was the first, made as a kind of rehearsal for the second more public happening previously documented here.

Much of the plastic was made up of bottles discarded in the Venetian lagoon, such as contaminate canals waterways around the world.

The following link offers one thought on how to solve the problem from our own Canal and River Trust: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-48516745
