Plastic bags are not costly to produce. They are also strong and easy to carry. This is why they are a popular container in much of the world.

But they are also a major source of pollution. It can take hundreds of years for plastic bags to break down. As they do, tiny pieces can poison soil, lakes, rivers, and oceans. So, environmental experts urge people to reuse and recycle plastic bags.

Maryland artist Allita Irby does just that. It starts with the morning newspaper.

Ms. Irby will read it later in the day. What is more important is getting that plastic bag the paper comes in.

The mixed media artist recognized its rich possibilities about three years ago.

“As I was talking the newspaper out. I felt the texture of the bags, they were soft. I just looked down and realized it takes three to make a braid. I’ll just put a few staples in here just to keep it from unraveling.”

Since then, Irby has been using plastic bags to create abstract lines in her art works.

Before incorporating plastic bags in her pieces, Irby used natural materials like feathers, leather and dried plants.

All those elements represent her Native American ancestry and identity, like her piece called “Navaho Bundles.”
