Waste Art
Metal scrap, packaging material, metal shavings and wastepaper ready for recycling, but first an artful processing.
At recycling yards, in freight cars, behind supermarkets, I ‘ve captured paper waste and scrap metal in a large number of individual photos for many months and put them together in collages. This is how colorful works of art were created, seemingly disordered, seemingly random.
