Bellwether: Connect


'Flora Foresta'  by Barbara De Pirro

This installation was inspired by rainforests and their incredible biodiversity and ability to influence climate patterns throughout many parts of the world.  It was created by using over 3,000 recycled plastic bags collected from the local community.  Each bag was used in its raw state; no dyes or paints were applied. They were then cut into strips and crocheted into individual plant forms.
