Virginia Fleck

If I come home from a store with plastic bags, I generally stuff them by my washer and dryer for future use. Virginia Fleck turns them into works of art.

Using only bags and tape, she constructs beautifully detailed, textured mandalas.

Nested in these lovely works is, undoubtedly, some implicit commentary on consumerist culture. Her website features this quote from Gina Piccalo:

“Life is being captured, repackaged and sold back to us as quickly as we live it.”

No one repackages the packaging as well as Virginia Fleck! Check out the impressive collection here.
