The Photographer’s Eye is proud to present Jerry Takigawa’s unique and thought-provoking work which addresses the toll that plastic takes on our natural world, which includes humans.

The exhibition will run from October 14 through November 18, 2023. A reception for the artist will be held on October 14, 4-7pm, and Jerry will be on hand to sign books and catalogs. The Photographer’s Eye Collective is located at 326 E. Grand Avenue, Escondido, CA 92025.

“In 2010, I watched a documentary on the Monterey Bay Aquarium in which a volunteer held up a jar for the audience to see. She explained that the colorful plastic pieces filling the jar were collected from the remains of a dead albatross on Midway Atoll. Countless albatross, mistaking floating plastic debris for food, die each year of starvation. Plastic debris, recovered from dead albatross on Midway Atoll, is the subject of False Food.”
