My art practice stems from a need to create beauty from that which has been discarded. Striving to lessen plastic pollution and overconsumption drives my creativity. Zero waste is the ultimate goal for my practice. Most of my materials come from daily life. I collect single-use plastic food packaging in my home, or clean up trash on my walks and bring it to my studio to transform it. Stitching and collaging is how I transform these repurposed materials.
I am on a mission to help other artists who struggle with knowing where to start using repurposed materials to achieve their creative vision.

Conversation with Bonny Leibowitz
Please enjoy my conversation with Bonny Leibowitz.
Here’s Bonny’s statement about her latest installation which I find very exciting.
Her work embodies concepts of Post-naturalism - a perspective that questions the objectification of nature as pristine and separate from humans. The installations are simulacra of environmental stories, histories, and concepts of nature, all of which have been constructed and distorted by humans.
Just as nature itself is hybridized and transformed by industry, so are the narratives we create. The installations serve as situations where the distinction between reality and representation breaks down, and the representation becomes a reality unto itself.
