6 - Polystyrene (PS).

Polystyrene is processed into two forms: The hard and transparent type is used in things like plastic forks and yoghurt pots and the softer variety is used in Styrofoam and foamy takeaway packaging. Many foods are sold in PS cups and trays, although PS synthesis requires benzene, a known carcinogen.

About Artist

Daria Martinoni

Initially an Urban Photographer driven by her background in Geography and her interest in our perception of space (and time), Daria Martinoni's conceptual photo series now address the impact of human behaviour and consumerism on the environment. Daria’s style is characterised by her ability to turn ordinary, often overlooked subjects into striking images that spark conversations about pertinent issues. She plays with the design elements of perspective, colour and repetition to create images characterised by a rich attention to detail, composition, and contextual information. Daria has received a PGDip (Post Graduate Diploma) in Photography from Falmouth University. She has achieved several winning entries and numerous honourable mentions in international photography competitions (including: Top Ten BBA One-Shot Award 2023; Annual Photography Awards, Special category winner, 2022; Chromatic Awards, Fine Art winner, Amateur 2022; PX3 Prix de la Photographie Paris, Gold in Fine Art/Still life, non professional 2022; Architecture Masterprize, Student Photography, Best of Best 2022). The Switzerland-based artist has had two solo exhibitions and has had her work included in several group exhibitions.
