Brief

The Instalation is concerned whith society's ever-changing growing stance on recycling. Where will this cycle of consumption end? The possibilities of future material usages
will be explored, and the feasibility for paperless offices. Fabricated from Paper-Mache skin and scaffolding the sculpture aims to address these issues through construction.
