California-based artist Tess Felix creates incredibly expressive portraits of environmental activists from coastal debris.
She combs the beaches near her home for plastic, trash, and other waste materials to put together the portraits, which contain different textures, shapes and colors.
Felix says, “I am deeply affected by the volumes of waste in our environment and I admire the activists, innovators and people who make their voices heard. The people in this series of portraits (Ocean Eco Heros) are the messengers and the voices resounding the urgency of the perilous state of the marine life and the oceans.”
