Ephemeral Goods

  • Li Sia Tan
Ephemeral Goods is a work-in-progress video from a four week self-intiated brief that is not outcome-driven.

For this project, my three main keywords were: ephemeral, consumption and sustainability. I wanted to communicate how we perceive single-use goods, like coffee cups and water bottles, as temporary, when they actually use up a lot of resources and take years to fully decompose. I did not want to create new items, but to only use existing materials. To develop this project further, I am interested in looking at how to change human behaviour about single-use goods.
