Impressive Street Art Created With Recycled Materials

Portuguese street artist Artur Bordalo, (aka Bordalo II), uses mixed media to create his own interpretations of the urban landscape and environment. His series of artwork aims to draw attention to the problems of waste production, materials that are not reused, pollution and its effect on the planet.

The idea is to depict nature itself, in this case – animals out of materials that are responsible for its destruction. These works were built with end-of-life materials: the majority found in wastelands, abandoned factories or just randomly. They are camouflaging the result of our habits with a little ecological and social awareness.
