Would you buy a plastic plant?
If so, what has led you to this decision?
Do you have a plastic brain too?

A plastic plant is a contradiction in itself. You try to
imitate nature by using a material that is directly harmful to
it. But what can lead a person to buy something so absurd? The
consumption of plastic products has been so normalized that we
even invented plastic plants and don‘t see anything wrong with
that. The title of the piece is trying to inspire the Audience
to think twice about why they consume plastic products in the
way and volume they do, and ideally maybe decide to buy a real
plant instead of a plastic one next time they want something
green in their room.

Has your brain already turned into plastic?
Are you not bothered by this?
Do you not see anything wrong with this?
