Merijn Tinga
Surfing
I am a visual artist, biologist and surfer.
The plastic pollution of our seas and oceans is rapidly becoming one of the biggest challenges of our era. Plastic is the driver behind our convenience society. I am not accusing plastic but our attitude towards plastic. All our effort should be focused on preventing plastics reaching our seas and oceans.
By way of surprising expeditions on surfboards made from plastic waste I aim to raise awareness and present solutions like deposit return fee.
