This project simulates the experience that a sea animal undergoes when they become entrapped in trash. It is meant to provoke discomfort and inhibit mobility so that humans can truly understand their effects on the environment. I began with a plain wetsuit and sewed a series of restrictive bands around key areas of the body for mobility, including the ankles, knees, wrists and arms. This way, the person wearing the suit would be shocked by their hindered mobility once they put it on, and this same shock would mimic that which an ocean animal would experience. After establishing this skeleton, I began applying a base layer of brown and white plastic sheets and bags, which concealed the restrictive while setting general look to the piece. In a tedious yet eventually rewarding process, I then hot glued multiple layers of different forms of plastic, old grocery bags, six-pack rings, water bottles, netting and pretty much any recyclable materials that can cause harm onto the wetsuit. Some final touches included adding a six-pack ring around the neck, and a large orange net across the body. When I wore the suit across campus, I received many bewildered looks, yet somehow most people seemed to understand the larger message.
