WASTELANDS: Wastelands, Los Angeles, 1st Street Bridge

This series is intended to be a visual critique of the crisis our planet is facing. With more and more trash accumulating in our environment, I was compelled to make a statement through my lens. My intent for this work is to resonate with viewers, raise awareness about the global trash issue, and inspire the audience to reduce their own personal consumption of trash and single-use plastics.

I chose the technique known as “knolling” – a process of arranging objects at 90-degree angles and photographing them from above. By utilizing the same set up, the same lens, the same distance, the same surface and the same collection technique (60 minutes), a comparable series begins to form allowing us to objectively contrast and evaluate individual cities.
