TURTLE CHOKER

I made this  choker by plaiting 3 lots of pieces of fishing rope together then plaiting the plaits together, before finishing the ends by burning them with a lighter and pressing the ropes flat together. The choker seals with a cable tie, the idea being that once its on it the user cant ever take it off. This is meant to represent sea creatures such as turtles getting tangled up in plastics and fishing nets and becoming permanently entangled, with some creatures bodies becoming deformed because their constricted by the plastics.
