When we look at the sea, which is something we usually do in summer, we can\u2019t help thinking about everything we are killing in it with our reckless consumption habits.<\/p>\n

So, we came up with the idea of creating a piece representing a floating cemetery which can be understood at first sight and easily executed.<\/p>\n

We would make it with recycled bottles joint together carefully to shape them into coffins which we would place on the water imitating boats moored at berth before they set out to the sea.<\/p>\n

The way we have conceived it, this piece would be made up of 100 floating rafts built with a chicken coop mesh which we would shape into a coffin to which we would attach recycled plastic bottles of many shapes and colors collected from local consumers.<\/p>\n

These would have to be clean, well arranged and closed, so they wouldn\u2019t sink. We would keep the labels because, apart from lending color, they allow us to know which drinks are the most consumed at the location where we\u2019re working.<\/p>\n

We would collect twigs and weeds in the surrounding area and put them inside the bottles which would wither after a few days. This would allow us to show the deterioration of life when it is contact with plastic.<\/p>\n

The entire surface of the bottles would be lighted, leaving the shape of the cross unlighted to bring out the shape of the floating coffins.<\/p>\n

All the pieces would be placed at the beach, in the sea as well as over the sand, carefully moored to maintain an arrangement resembling a cemetery.<\/p>\n

After the exhibition, visitors could take the rafts and maybe use them as air mattresses.<\/p>\n

Mirando al mar, algo que solemos hacer en verano, es inevitable pensar en todo lo que estamos matando en \u00e9l con nuestros h\u00e1bitos de consumo irresponsables.<\/p>\n

Y se nos ocurri\u00f3 la idea de llevar a cabo una pieza que represente un cementerio flotante, entendible a primera vista y de f\u00e1cil resoluci\u00f3n.<\/p>\n

La har\u00edamos con botellas recicladas, unidas entre s\u00ed cuidadosamente para conseguir la forma de ata\u00fades, que colocar\u00edamos en el agua, simulando barcas amarradas en el puerto esperando para hacerse a la mar.<\/p>\n

La pieza, tal como la imaginamos, constar\u00eda de unas 100 balsas flotantes, construidas a partir de una malla de gallinero a la que dar\u00edamos la forma de ata\u00fad, y a la que sujetar\u00edamos botellas de pl\u00e1stico recicladas del consumo local, de muy variadas formas y colores.<\/p>\n

Estas deber\u00edan estar limpias, bien ordenadas y cerradas, para que no se hundan. Mantendr\u00edamos las etiquetas, ya que ademas de dar color, siempre nos ayudan a saber qu\u00e9 bebidas son las mas consumidas en el contexto en el que estamos trabajamos.<\/p>\n

En el interior de las botellas guardar\u00edamos ramas y malas hierbas, recogidas del entorno y que con el paso de los d\u00edas se ir\u00e1n secando. Esto nos permitir\u00e1 mostrar de una manera visual, el deterioro de la vida cuando est\u00e1 en contacto con el pl\u00e1stico.<\/p>\n

Toda la superficie de botellas se iluminar\u00eda, dejando a oscuras la forma de una cruz que har\u00e1 mas reconocible la forma de los ata\u00fades flotantes.<\/p>\n

Todas las piezas se colocar\u00e1n en la playa, dentro del mar y tambi\u00e9n en la arena, amarradas con sumo cuidado para mantener una forma ordenada imprescindible para simular que se trata de un cementerio.<\/p>\n

Al finalizar el tiempo de exposici\u00f3n, los visitantes se podr\u00edan llevar las balsas y quiz\u00e1s usarlas como colchonetas de playa.<\/p>\n
