Phase two: Primary School Workshops 250 pupils aged 9-11 will take part in memorable hands-on activities: - litter picks - plastic awareness games - art activities
Part 2: Each primary school makes a small Plastic Mountain sculpture - Reflect on the role art can play in society
Part 3: The plastic mountain sculpture is placed in an outdoor space. The children witness the earth slowly eroding but the plastic remains - A visual metaphor: plastic is not part of natures cycles
Phase three: Plastic Mountain
Passers-by will be invited to collect litter from the area and add it to the construction.
A couple of weeks later, the box will be dismantled to reveal a beautiful sculpture made of layers of earth with little hints of colour from the embedded litter.
But over the next two months, the earth will erode, leaving behind a ghostly metal structure covered in litter.
The Benefits: The project has two aims: 1. Create a sense of place & community  for West Norwood as we emerge from the pandemic 2. Inspire and galvanise the local community to create a new way of living with plastic more in harmony with our environment
