"Plastic" Art by John Dahlsen





                 Plastics.    We use them daily...
                 Plastic bottles, bags, pens, hangers etc.
                John Dahlsen found another way to use our "wastes". 
                He collected plastics from the Australian beaches and created art 
                using a material that was uncommon to the artistic world.
                Paintings that do not comply to the usual but who could think that things like 
                a plastic bag or ropes could actually offer a variety of uses and colours?
