During the last 16 years, artist Serge Attukwei Clottey has been collecting discarded yellow containers made out of plastic that were once used by people who had no running water. Women were tasked to walk miles to fill up the containers with potable water. Today, the containers are littering the country. Serge is using them as raw material for his plastic tapestries.
In addition to talking about the water crisis and environmental injustice, Serge is blanketing the streets where he lives to make a case for people unable to claim private property because of bureaucratic obstacles.
Desert X is currently showing an installation in Palm Springs using Serge Attukwei Clottey's plastic tapestry. Water shortage, environmental justice, and land ownership are issues that affect us here also.
We will use the same image reference of the yellow plastic container symbolizing so many things as inspiration for a still life painting.
