SYNOPSIS

Lids and Straws animates 60 photographs of discarded plastic straws to mimic the passing hand of a clock, one second for each image. Christian Marclay took the photographs on his daily walks around London with the idea to control how single-use plastics provide mere seconds of enjoyment yet take an eternity to biodegrade.
