In this sequel to ETHYL: Part 1, we meet the 82-foot-long blue whale sculpture named Ethyl (as in polyethylene, the plastic) made from hand-recycled plastic trash and the artists, Yustina Salnikova and Joel Stockdill, who made her. Follow Ethyl’s journey, traveling from her birthplace in Monterey Bay, CA to her new home in Santa Fe, NM, and her installation process on the campus of Santa Fe Community College. Students, faculty and community members partake in the sustainability programs at SFCC and welcome Ethyl to campus with a corn ceremony.
Ethyl’s dramatic size and name help bring awareness to our planet’s massive issue with plastic pollution. The blue whale is the largest creature that has ever lived on Earth, weighing about 300,000 pounds – sadly, this is equivalent to the approximate weight of plastic that ends up in the ocean every nine minutes.
Meow Wolf, in partnership with Santa Fe Community College, introduced the life-sized blue whale named Ethyl at SFCC’s main campus Earth Day 2019. Ethyl’s message asks us to address climate change, foster a sustainable, healthy environment in protection of our planet for future generations.
