Join us in wishing a happy birthday to @mikarottenberg 💚 Rottenberg is devoted to a rigorous practice that combines film, architectural installation and sculpture to explore labor and value in today’s hyper-capitalist world. Her latest works transform over a ton of discarded plastic, collected with the Inner City Green Team in Harlem, into modular systems woven with invasive bittersweet vines. Playfully dubbed ‘eco rococo,’ these works give new life to toxic and invasive materials. Learn more about the artist’s practice at the link in bio. 1 Mika Rottenberg and Garlan Miles construct the bar, sculptures and lamps that are to adorn Manuela restaurant in SoHo, NYC.
