We created a series of limited-edition art posters to raise awareness around ocean litter, and in particular balloon waste. The Wild & Scenic Film Festival will feature three of these posters (below) this month in California.
When traditionally celebratory objects, chiefly designed to bring joy, end up bringing destruction and death instead, there is suddenly a surreal sinisterness to their playful colors and uplifting slogans. That irony and contrast allows them to create a powerful commentary. The three balloons here were removed from the Pacific Ocean by Balloon Brigade.
