This installation was created at St Bee's beach in West Cumbria in May 2015 and was composed of plastic debris collected from the beach.The International sign of toxic material is a skull and crossbones as is the sign of the pirate Jolly Roger and was adopted for this installation to highlight the dangers of toxic chemicals slowly released from sea dumped plastic degradation.
