Bottle tops
May 17th 2008 03:02
For several weeks I’ve been keeping the lids of milk bottles, because they don’t get recycled along with the bottles. My intention was to make a statement (when I got round to it) about the
way in which only certain plastic things can be recycled. I had in mind a collage or found-object type of artwork where the lids would make a protest.
Well, so much for my art. And protest.
My daughter said to me the other day: I see you’re keeping the bottle tops so I can take them to kindy (kindergarten for those who don’t have little children round the place). My future art plans went out the window as I realised that at least at the kindy the tops would be getting used. A more valuable way of ‘recycling’ them than my proposed cultural approach!
