Potato Famine and Found Plastic

Potato Famine and Found Plastic
fused plastic collage with stitching, 21.5 x 22.5 cm

What I noticed as the week wore on was that the plastic I was generating wasn't the most suitable for my collages. In fact, only potatoes,  carrots and ice came in bags that melt without shrinking and stinking enormously. While walking, I found a range of gold and yellow pieces of plastic, though, a bag of quavers (with aluminium inner which is tricky, but I can make work), a balloon,  and some tobacco pouches that needed lots of cleaning to use. As I moved the pieces around on the ironing board to find a 'landscape', I knew I needed a canary yellow to pull it all together.
