The challenge is set… I am to turn a piece of rubbish into a piece of art, something beautiful, something functional.  So there I am looking at the 1.5ltr bottle of Buxton Water on my desk. My partner and I go through 12 bottles of water a week, that’s 624 bottles a year. This doesn’t include the 52-104 bottles of milk, fizzy drink and squash bottles I recycle weekly. In Britain we use 15 million plastic bottles a day. So how can I turn a plastic bottle into something beautiful?

We have all been there, sat in an CPD meeting were you are told by the presenter: ‘I would like you turn this piece of paper into a circle that is big enough for all of you to walk through’ they then hand you a piece of A4 paper and a pair of scissors.

So that’s what I did, using the same principle as the Mathematical Impossible Hole I cut up my plastic bottle so that it became a rectangle of plastic. I then strategically cut lines into it to form a circle of plastic.  The result was an organic evolving plastic form that can be worn around the neck, or wrist. This transitional derelicte piece of jewelry is unique to the wearer by the way that is uniquely positioned and worn.
