18th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Altered Images
White Trash
In response to the growing use of single-use plastics, including polystyrene take-out containers, I created this image of the 'Styrofoam Elf' - just think of the Styrofoam Elf and the mining of their precious Styrofoam when you get your next takeout meal. Our thoughtless consumption is threatening their existence by wiping out their ancestral styrofoam mines.
