I was so appalled at the amount of litter being left by the side of our roads that I decided to start collecting this garbage and photograph it. I have concentrated on aluminium cans as they all contain instructions on how to recycle. Since beginning this project, I have become fascinated with the shape and form each object takes on after being crushed under the wheels of passing vehicles. By using this rubbish as art my aim is to highlight the amount of waste we discard in our ‘throw away society’ and encourage recycling. Many of these images will feature in an exhibition of my work at an East Midlands art gallery in May 2026.
