🌍✨ This Earth Day, we’re turning the spotlight on the urgent issue of plastic pollution with artist Wang Jin’s powerful work. By repurposing imperial dragon robes, Jin confronts the damaging effects of plastic and rampant consumerism in modern China. 🐉🚫 The overproduction of goods has taken a toll on our fragile environment, leaving a trail of devastation. Plastics, in particular, pose a grave threat. Even after breaking down, they linger as harmful microplastics, contaminating our food, water, and air with toxins. 💡 It’s time to take action and rethink our relationship with plastic. Let’s work together to create a cleaner, greener future for our planet. #EarthDay #PlasticPollution #EnvironmentalAwareness _ Wang Jin, A Chinese Dream/Dream of China, 2005.
