The polymer chain: plastic itineraries and plastic images in a sociomaterialist assemblage
No full textThe chapter describes the authors residency at The Compound13 Lab in Dharavi, the worlds largest informal settlement and the centre for plastic recycling in Mumbai. The author maps the waste routes that plastics take as they travel through Dharavi. By diverting a flow of these plastics into the Compound13 lab Dawson facilitates a participatory art project that co-aligns the toxic entanglements of waste plastic with 3D printing. By taking a socio materialists stance the author explores a circular economy to build material based understandings. The author challenges the extractive process of ‘cognitive’ mining and proposes that ‘plastic’ images can accumulate to make a more productive form of destabilised and unfinished images that are always ‘in the making’
