Visual Description of Artwork
In this photograph, a beach at low tide fills the bottom two-thirds of the image. The beach is covered with huge piles of plastic waste, including bottles, cups, packaging, mixed with some small pieces of driftwood. In the distance, the tide is going out, and a large tree branch has washed ashore. A cloudy sky fills the upper third of the image. To the left of the center, a figure that appears to be a Native American man in a feathered headdress, a fringed jacket, a blanket, and moccasins, stands with a horse, looking over the scene. The figure and the horse seem to be painted, and, perhaps, added digitally to the image.
