Anna Naduda’s Floating Island of Scrap Metal, Plastic Bottles in Kiev

Anna Naduda’s Floating Island of Scrap Metal, Plastic Bottles in Kiev

November 14, 2016 Artists

“I used a scrap metal for the carcass and I have built a floating-island from plastic bottles,” says sculptor Anna Naduda about her new piece for the Kyiv (Kiev) based Mural Social Club.

Originally a mural program, the organizers are now branching out to other mediums – another example of festivals like these creating a new entity in public art curation that may forgoing the bureaucratic routes of the past. In this way many artists from the graffiti and Street Art scene have had doors opened to their participation in public art projects in many cities, a point that is not often discussed.

The light-emitting sculpture of found bottles floating above a lake in Rylskiy Park calls to mind the huge masses of floating plastic that are found in oceans today, the result of our trash being dumped directly or washed into our streams, rivers, lakes, and eventually out to sea.

Ms. Naduda says that she visited a metal and plastic re-cycling center to see fields of unprocessed plastic bottles. “It was an impressive experience,” she says.

The sculpture is called “Water Plant” and weighs around 500 kilos and she says it collects solar energy during the day and gives the light back during the night.

The Mural Social Club festival artist roster continues to grow and evolve, carefully including local artists along with the visiting international ones. The full list includes Li-Hill, Rodrigo Branco, Fintan Magee, Borondo, Fikos Antonios, Millo, Agostino Iacurci, Elian, Evoca1 and Ukrainian street artists such as Sergey Radkevich, Olexander Grebenyuk, Roma Wius, and Sasha Korban.
