Bordalo II macht Street Art aus Müll. Sein Werk „Big Trash Animals“ ist eine Serie von Kunstwerken, die auf Umweltverschmutzung und den Einfluss von weggeworfenen Gütern, welche nicht wiederverwendet werden, aufmerksam machen soll.
Dabei stellt er in seinen Werken die Natur in Form von Tieren dar – meist unter Verwendung von Materialien, die für ihre Zerstörung verantwortlich sind.
Big Trash Animals is a series of artworks that aims to draw attention to a current problem that is likely to be forgotten, become trivial or a necessary evil.
The problem involves 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 are built with end-of-life materials: the majority found in wastelands, abandoned factories or randomly and some are obtained from companies that are going through a recycling process.
Damaged bumpers, burnt garbage cans, tires and appliances are just some of the objects that can be identified when you go into detail. They are camouflaging the result of our habits with little ecological and social awareness.
