cellophane painting

My project Cellophane painting is the next step after my early projects. Now in Cellophane painting project I use only plastic bags, cellophane cover films and no any paint or other artistic material. These plastic materials are already include the rich palette of colors and textures. Plastic  stays in ground for tens of years and hardly dissolve. It’s thousands tons of not dissolved trash lie on a huge territory of Kazakh steppe.
