ENDLESS COLUMNS
2010-2019
Plastic bottle caps, like plastic bags, are a plastic product that can’t be/isn’t recycled. Mary Ellen conceived of an endless column of these caps and jar lids, after Constantin Brancusi’s iconic modernist sculpture. One became two, and two became many. They are in several private collections. All images © 2010 - 2015
