Recycled Celebrities by Jason Mecier

Jason has spent over 10 years creating outrageous 3-D mosaic portraits of his favorite pop culture icons. Each portrait is created from the celebrities own discarded objects and junk such as broken sunglasses, make-up, gum wrappers, jewelry, deodorant, shoes, and other items. Famous faces like Lady Gaga, Andy Warhol, Pink, Donald Trump, The White Stripes and a lot more have been chiseled out of trash.

Jason Mecier lives and works in San Francisco. He fervently hopes one day to trade art with Marilyn Manson, Buffy Sainte-Marie, Jane Seymour and Yoko Ono.













































Miniature Cities Built Of Junked Computer Parts

Franco Recchia builds miniature cities out of computer scrap. "In these works of arts I mostly utilised heat sinks, RAMs, disk controllers, electronic connectors, chipsets, microprocessors and TV tuners," he says. "The idea is to give life again to what otherwise is destined to be lost – or worse, thrown away."
