Vessel Obsession Reference Page

A reference page maintained in solidarity with Facebook group Vessels Obsession – O‘ahu

A dating site for people and their trash, particularly containers! A place to venerate trash, in the hopes of building more conscious discussion about creating less of it. A place for soldiers, and seafarers, artists, dreamers … also gardeners and teachers. Basically anyone who seeks trash-as-material for whatever project on the horizon.
