"Wasted Cigarettes" is a multi-media photographic and sculptural series by Carl Holmes that brings awareness to one of the most commonly discarded wastes in the United States. According to a National Park Service 2021 report, 1.69 billion pounds of cigarette waste pollute the public each year. Wasted Cigarettes immerses the viewer in the vast expanse of litter around us and acknowledges the negative impact social smoking has on our public spaces.
