Artist Marina DeBris starts each day combing the beaches of Sydneyâs eastern suburbs for rubbish that she fashions into a kind of couture called âtrashionâ. Itâs not hard for this âtrashionistaâ to find raw materials for her creations.
âYou wouldnât believe some of the things I find washed up on the beach,â she says â the most common: cigarette butts; the strangest: a latex sex toy.
Model and scientist Laura Wells wears âThe ones that got awayâ, which Marina DeBris made from aluminium cans and plastic bottles.Â
