Thrown to the Wind

“Thrown to the Wind
Beijing-based artist Wang Zhiyuan piece entitled Thrown to the Wind ascends 36 feet into the air. Zhiyuan’s tornado of plastic waste is a reminder of the trash that overwhelms his hometown and it’s surrounding environment. It pretty much speaks to anyone – the reality is that we are all living with it the effects of non-dispoable waste.

The very second I saw this I thought of Shel Silverstein and Sarah Sylvia Cynthia Stout, the girl who wouldn’t take the garbage out. Don’t remember it? Here you go.
