Rubbish Blooms Ōtaki Forks

The Penny

The Sarita


The Carol

Each flower is made out of plastic rubbish donated by the person or family it is named after. The names of these flowers refer not only to the idea of a new creation made out of old ingredients, but also memorialize the few days of plastic trash from that person.
