Recycling for a Sustainable World 2010
Approximate size: 5' x 4' x 3'
Stainless steel
Commissioned by the city of East Lansing and supported by a local recycling company, this piece includes a sculptural rendition of the recycling symbol.
The classic recycling symbol, three arrows following each other around a triangle, was first proposed in 1970 by a design student who thought of a Mobius loop as a symbol of continuous use. This sculpture presents the recycling symbol in three dimensions, as a three-sided Mobius loop supporting our world.
