PLASTIC GROWTH

PHOTO MANIPULATION

About the Project: A concept project exploring photo manipulation, more specifically glitch art, through code in Processing. Inspired by my senior capstone project and Kim Asendorf’s pixel sorting, I chose the subject of plastic pollution and to contrast it against nature through glitch art. To set the foundation of the project, I approach it as a concept project in which I was commissioned by CNN to create images for an article on plastic pollution and the Great Pacific Garbage Patch.
