Thomas Valtin | Plastic Planet

Munich based photographer Thomas Valtin teams with stylist Trang Cao and hmua Meret Schneebeli, both at Fame Agency, for a story visualising the problem of plastic in our planet featuring models Jona / Mirrrs & Anne / Promod

Today we use plastic – a material designed to last forever – for products designed to last minutes.

UPSTREAM

In the eyes of many, plastic is a cheap and convenient material, discarded shortly after use. Out of sight, out of mind. Ultimately, it all congregates in our rivers and oceans. While developing nations without the resources necessary to tackle the issue, usually live in a state of utmost pollution, it is up to the consumers in the wealthier, and higher annual waste per capita, countries to push on changes for a better future.
