NESTS

Is our habitat a commodity or a community?

Our encroachment on wildlife habitats, our pollution and our disregard have taken a heavy toll on most species.

The things I collect were discarded, thrown out, used up and left as trash. Since we are intimately connected to place, combining these manmade objects with the ideas of habitat preservation and regeneration makes me question and examine the community of environment and our place in it.
