Matini asilia - Kiingereza Plastic: The art medium of the modern era
Sometimes words aren’t enough. When it comes to plastic pollution, the facts are well known. More than 8 million tonnes of plastic waste enter our oceans every year. One million plastic bottles are bought every minute.
Sometimes words aren’t enough. When it comes to plastic pollution, the facts are well known. More than 8 million tonnes of plastic waste enter our oceans every year. One million plastic bottles are bought every minute. One hundred thousand marine animals are killed by plastic annually.
Too often these numbers roll over people like a wave. The outsized problem, so difficult to grasp in scale, can sometimes engender only a feeling of helplessness.
Art has been helping society overcome this gap between problem and action almost since the first human scratched an animal figure onto a cave wall. It is no different today. Where facts and figures lose influence, artwork can still leave an impact. That would explain why there has been a proliferation of plastic waste art in recent years.
Examples abound. From the massive “Happy Happy”, created from 1.7 million plastic items in Seoul to the small “Plasticide” made from tiny microplastics in London, the medium of the modern era is plastics.
To celebrate World Environment Day this year, UN Environment organized 12 art installations around Asia and the Pacific under the theme of #BeatPlasticPollution. Like with other artwork, the goal was to ask questions of passersby in the hope they may contribute to a solution.
Exhibits ranged from the abstract to the whimsical to the cultural.
In Auckland, New Zealand, local artist Brydee Rood created a windsock from plastic bags half the length of a football field called “May the Winds Not Carry Us Out to Sea”.

Bali saw the unveiling of “Baruna Murthi”. Drawing on Balinese culture and mythology, the sculpture is a depiction of Baruna, the Balinese God of the Sea, who is furious because of the huge amounts of plastic waste in the sea. Due to his wrath, Baruna has transformed (Murthi) his face into a giant Lionfish.

A Hong Kong architect cleverly demonstrated our dismissive attitude toward plastic waste by creating a 400-kilogram sphere of plastic and painting it in extremely dense high-tech black paint that reflects almost no light. The black hole-like sphere is roughly the same volume as the plastic waste that Hong Kongers generate every minute.

Bangkok saw a series of gates constructed from plastic bags. The number of bags collected for the installation – some 50,000 – represents the approximate number Bangkok will dispose of in one minute.

Reusing waste plastic in Beijing, artists constructed giant scrolls onto which traditional Chinese sayings about nature were projected.

Singapore’s 120-metre caterpillar sculpture, meanwhile, will grow over the course of a month as more and more plastic bottles are added.

And in Yangon, a plastic wave of bottles threatened to drown a plastic whale swimming through Junction City mall.

Other pieces were installed in Davao, Manila, Shanghai, Seoul, Tokyo.
Changing minds and habits isn’t easy. But where words fail, art thrives.

Tafsiri - Kiswahili Plastiki: Njia ya sanaa ya enzi za kisasa
Wakati mwingine maneno hayatoshi. Inapofikia uchafu wa plastiki, ukweli unafahamika vyema kabisa. Zaidi ya tani milioni 8 za taka za plastiki huingia katika bahari zetu kila mwaka. Chupa milioni moja za plastiki hununuliwa kila dakika.
Wakati mwingine maneno hayatoshi. Ikifika upande wa taka za plastiki, ukweli unafahamika vyema vyema. Zaidi ya tani milioni 8 za taka za plastiki huingia katika bahari zetu kila mwaka. Chupa milioni moja za plastiki hununuliwa kila dakika. Wanyama elfu mia moja wa baharini huuawa na plastiki kila mwaka.
Mara nyingi sana idadi hii huwapata watu kama wimbi. Tatizo hili kuu, lililo ngumu kuonyesha kipimo chake, wakati mwingine linaweza kusababisha tu hisia ya kutokuwa na uwezo.
Sanaa imekuwa ikiisaidia jamii kujaza pengo hili kati ya tatizo na hatua karibu tangu binadamu wa kwanza alipochora mchoro wa mnyama kwenye ukuta wa pango. Hakuna tofauti leo. Ambapo ukweli na idadi hukosa kuleta matokeo, michoro bado inaweza kuleta matokeo. Hii inaweza kueleza ni kwa nini kumekuwa na ueneaji wa uchafu wa plastiki katika miaka ya hivi karibuni.
Mifano ni mingi. Kutoka kwa “Furaha Furaha” kubwa, iliotengenezwa kutoka kwa vifaa milioni 1.7 vya plastiki katika mji wa Seoul kwa “Plastisidi” iliyotengenezwa kutoka kwa viplastiki vindogo mjini London, njia ya plastiki ya kisasa.
Ili kusherehekea Siku ya Ulimwengu ya Mazingira, Mazingira ya UN yalipanga wekaji 12 za sanaa karibu India na pacifiki na utulivu chini ya maudhui ya #Pigananatakayaplastiki. Kama kwa kazi zingine za zanaa, lengo lilikuwa kuuliza maswali ya wapitaji kwa tumaini kuwa watachangia katika kuleta suluhu.
Onyesho zilitamba kwanzia kwa dhahania, kwa wakati uliopo hadi kwa utamaduni.
Jijini Auckland, New Zealand, msanii Brydee Rood alitengeneza fuko la upepo kutoka kwa mifuko ya plastiki ulio na urefu wa nusu ya uwanja wa uwanja wa soka liitwalo "Upepo Usitubebe ukatupeleka baharini".

Bali aliona kufunuliwa kwa “Baruna Murthi”. Mchoro kwenye utamaduni na hadithi za Balinese, sanaa ya uchongaji ni mfano wa Baruna, Mungu wa Bahari wa Balinese, ambaye amekasirika kwa sababu ya idadi kubwa taka za plastiki baharini. Kwa sababu ya hasira, Baruna amebadilisha (Murthi) uso wake kuwa Samaki Mkubwa.

Msanifu majengo wa Hong Kong alionyesha kwa njia ya hekima mtazamo wetu mbaya kuhusu taka ya plastiki kwa kutengeneza kilo 400 za tufe za plastiki na kuipaka rangi kwa rangi ya nyeusi sana ambayo inaonyesha mwanga kidogo kabisa au isiyooyensha mwanga wowote. Tufe la rangi nyeusi lililo kama shimo ni la kiwango sawa na taka ya plastiki ambalo watu wa Hong Kong hutoa.

Bangkok iliona milango mingi iliyojengwa kutokana na mifuko ya plastiki. Idadi ya mifuko ilikusanywa ili kuwekwa – baadhi ya 50,000 – husimamia idadi takribani ambayo Bangkok itatupa katika dakika moja.

Kwa kutumia tena karatasi za taka zilizotupwa nchini Beijing, wasanii walijenga hati kubwa ambapo Misemo ya kitamaduni ya kichina kuhusu asili zilikuwa zinaonyeshwa.

Sanaa ya uchongaji ya kiwavi, kwa sasa, itakua kwa muda wa mwezi mmoja chupa nyingi za plastiki zinavyozidi kuongezeka.

Na katika Mji wa Yangon, Wimbi la plastiki la chupa lilitishia kuzamisha plastiki zinazoelea kupitia Duka la Kibiashara la makutano.

Vipande vingine viliwekwa katika Davao, Manila, Shanghai, Seoul, Tokyo.
Si rahisi kubadilisha tabia na akili. Lakini pale ambapo ulimwengu hufeli, art hufaulu.
