Every year, our country generates 9.46 million tonnes of plastic waste. What's even grimmer than this figure is the fact that 40 per cent of it remains uncollected. And even though some of us continue to ignore the damage and treat the plastic menace as only a buzzword, artist Aaditi Joshi has made it her inspiration — using plastic as a medium of art.
Last year, the city-based artist was part of Wasteland, a group show at TARQ, and presented large installations comprising fused plastic bags. This year, she returns for her first solo at the gallery, for which she's adopted a minimal approach. An ongoing exhibition, New Works by Aaditi Joshi makes use of polypropylene (PP) bags.
