Buddhism teaches impermanence, the notion that there is a beginning and end to all things.
Buddhist statues will someday fade just as disposable cups do.
However, Buddhist statues and disposable goods are considered separate.
That is why I would like to use the caving techniques for Buddhist statues on my work to indicate my questioning of existing values.
