Tea Ceremony with Pacific Plastics is a UCLA-based interdisciplinary research initiative that uses chanoyu (tea ceremony) as a lens to explore histories of East-West cultural exchange and contemporary ecological issues in the Pacific Ocean. This summer exhibition will showcase ocean-inspired tea utensils created by the collective in collaboration with various artists, an up-cycled tea room, and a small zen garden made entirely from shopping bags and salvaged ocean plastics.
