The terns, like many other birds, are significantly harmed by the plastic waste that easily reaches the water sources where they feed, when they mistakenly identify the waste - plastic bags and other particles - as food.
The Little Brick sculpture is made from a variety of plastic waste pieces found on the country's beaches, in white, black and yellow, without the use of paint or glue and with a zero-waste approach.
This artwork is being sold as part of the "Artists for Marine Mammals" fundraiser. All proceeds are dedicated to the continued conservation of marine mammals in Israel.
