The series "Waves" deals with a phenomenon that appears in spring. Fields covered by plastic tarpaulins, where a wide variety of fruits and vegetables ripen faster and earlier. This type of cultivation is highly specialized and requires a great deal of effort; however, the final yield seems to justify these efforts. Plastic waste is a major problem, partly because the plastic tarpaulins that are no longer needed are often not disposed of properly. In some cases, they are simply plowed under, leaving them irretrievably in the ground and causing serious pollution. Plastic shreds are blown away, plastic residues in the soil inhibit plant growth or influence the reproduction of soil organisms. Studies now assume that there are many times more microplastics in arable soils, compared to the huge mountains of plastic in the oceans. Even if these covers cannot be denied a certain aesthetic appeal - they sometimes look like an original part of the landscape, like water or waves - they are symbolic of how we treat ourselves and the environment.
