This piece was inspired by people panic buying bottled water during the coronavirus outbreak. Unsurprisingly, my dad also bought many bottled water. I personally think it would be very not eco-friendly if all of the plastic bottles are just being thrown away since they cannot be decomposed naturally. Thus, I thought I can incorporate them into my art piece to contribute to the improvement of our environment. Additionally, the piece not only suggests the degradability of plastic, but it also exemplifies the process of feelings fading away. With the fast-paced lifestyle that we had before the quarantine, it is very hard for us to take our time to process our thoughts and feelings. Therefore, this piece also reminds people to give time to themselves and let negative things decompose.
