This project focuses attention on found garbage - what it contains, how it is packaged, its chemical make-up, consuming and recycling ideas and observations, appreciation of design and shape: discarded pop bottles, water bottles, soap containers. These refuse shapes - collected in the Lansdowne/Dupont neighbourhood - provided a starting for a Walk Here artwork that was inset at Wallace Emerson Park.

Plastic garbage was filled with recycled glass, mirrors and cement and then cut in half: the works appear as beautiful reminders.

Bishop Marrocco/Merton High School, grade 12 interns, helped with the project “Contained” and local residents participated by dropping off favorite used plastic bottles for inclusion.
