Abstract
This project is a collection of interactive art installations that addresses the adverse environmental effect of the global manufacturing process considering the textile industry of Bangladesh as a case study. I will use copyright-free sources; for example, World Resource Institution, BreezoMeter, Google images of pollution, etc., and find out which components of the environment are being affected. The project Reflected Reality is an attempt to emphasize environmental communication and encourage our collective responsibility. The project will demonstrate that developed countries share a crucial responsibility as the primary consumer of products manufactured in these polluted countries. The project will outline different facets of environmental pollution and illustrate how workers and general people from these polluted countries suffer because of the manufacturing process.
