The Silent Waste project combines self-portraiture and landscape photography to highlight the issue of fly-tipping in Scotland, showcase the superficiality of beauty and blind trend-following. The aim of the project is to raise awareness about waste disposal, responsible segregation, and recycling.
This visual narrative uncovers the striking contrast between beauty and decay, capturing the silent devastation of our environment. It represents fragility and transience. The eerie charm of the barren Scottish scenery stands as a poignant reminder of the consequences of humanity's negligence towards nature. Despite nature's eventual reclamation, the destructive practice of fly-tipping continues to destroy Scotland's natural beauty.
