People look at Angie's work

When people dispose of electronic waste, it is transferred–most often to developing countries–but it doesn’t go away. This was on the mind of intermedia art, writing and performance PhD candidate Angie Eng as she mounted e-waste on magnets and created a mandala that is an interactive art display.

 I think that to advocate for activism, somehow there has to be a way to get the visitor or the viewer to contemplate their participation in it, and also their connection to it, by looking at this abundance of waste in an aesthetically pleasing way as opposed to an aggressive way.
