One Plastic Beach
Directed by Eric Slatkin · Starring Richard Lang, Judith Selby Lang · 2011
For years, artists Richard Lang and Judith Selby Lang have combed a single Northern California beach for plastic debris, turning the ocean's castoffs into strikingly beautiful art.
A striking look at an artist couple who turn one beach's plastic trash into beautiful art and a quiet environmental warning.
Richard and Judith Selby Lang have, for years, been picking up plastic detritus from Kehoe Beach in Northern California and using these found objects to create art. The results are pretty spectacular.
