WASHED UP PHOTO SERIES. Alejandro began this project in 2010, when he encountered the situation in Sian Ka’an firsthand. In response, he began collecting the colorful plastic—along with light bulbs and other objects—that have floated ashore from all over the world.
Through his images, Durán “depicts a new form of colonization by consumerism” in which even protected land is threatened by our relentless consumer culture of disposable products. Washed Up encourages viewers to pause and consider how our actions have far-reaching effects on the natural world.
