SAFETY NET
In partnership with the Tobacco Lab at Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center, this work uses e-cigarette cartridges confiscated from grade schools across Buffalo, New York. The cartridges are woven together to create a malleable netting formed into playful shapes. As a material, these cartridges were designed to be attractive. A strategy used in various fields to make products appealing even when harmful and deadly.
