Found object art makes plastic fantastic

found art1.jpgWith a substance as hard to recycle as plastic, you have to be creative about how you re-use it. And one way to do this is by turning it into art.

Steve Wiman creates wonderful pieces of contemporary art from vibrant found plastic bits. All are everyday items; toys, dishes, books, clothes, photographs, paper ephemera, tools, jewelry, bicycle tyres. And most would probably be sent to landfill under normal circumstances. This artist's work would set a great example for anyone wanting to bring up green kids, and inspire their creativity.
