Instead of throwing the plastic bags, Vilde J. Rolfsen used these rather cheap materials to make landscapes. These plastics used are not even bought but found in the streets. She uses trash and transform it into an art. She wanted to express how humans take simple materials for granted and not really looking at the beauty of simple, everyday things. The used, crumpled plastics, often seen as unwanted and old is what makes her installation special.
I see her work as an inspiration when it comes to materials.
