Summary:Plastic - the single biggest addiction of humans in the 21st century. We use it every day, but do we know that we live, eat, breathe plastic bits? While the versatility and cost-friendly plastic make our lives better and more convenient, plastic consumerism comes with a price. Silent Invader is an immersive installation that underlines the entanglement of human and microplastics in everyday life. The three animated chapters highlight the microplastic impact on land, water, and air. The endlessly multiplying animated loops illustrate various plastic's daily use. All the video fragments come together in one large-scale projection collage - an overwhelming reminder of plastic's detrimental environmental effects.
