Message in a Bottle
Produced as part of a collaboration for the 2019 Olso Architecture Triennale, Message in a Bottle is a critique of plastic waste. The structure is comprised of an alternative plastic bottle that interlocks to form a structural network. These "Friendship Bottles" propose a second life as a building unit after their contents are consumed. Mounted to these bottles are lenses that display collected plastic waste alongside drawings of systems that eliminate and remediate this waste.
Resin test tiles encase scale figures in a sea of toxic color.

Observation bottles allow participants to view small plastic artifacts alongside methods to eliminate them.
Each bottle is labeled with a unique quote from leading sustainability thinkers. Quotes are numbered and color coded in different categories.
