TRASH ACTIONS - 2020 ongoing
IN PROGRESS.......
conceived by Laura Quattrocchi
Trash Actions is an ongoing art practice/research that produces sound and a sculpture while collecting litter/trash.
I also think of it as rearranging litter.
I use needle and thread.
I am self thought. My background is in dance but my mind likes to assemble structures with all kinds of materials.
I work mostly with trash or disposable objects. I see trash as energy. My work is inspired by The First Law of Thermodynamics (Conservation) which states that energy is always conserved, it cannot be created or destroyed. "The total amount of energy and matter in the Universe remains constant, merely changing from one form to another. I sense this constantly and I can't stop thinking about it.
Trough these actions I seek to understand where energy goes and the brokenness of this universal harmony.
Trash/Litter is here to stay but I can make it beautiful.
