Barcelona-born street artist Francisco de Pájaro creates quirky monsters from trash in cities around the world. He finds the trash and creates these monsters at night, working quickly, painting with bright colors, holding them up with tape, and drawing different facial expressions and poses. The wacky creatures he creates amuse and cheer up passersby.
He calls the series "Art is Trash", which is fitting since his art is literally made from garbage. His aim is to inspire people to look at trash in a new light, while having a laugh along the way as well: "I am creating fun and beauty out of something society considers gross and disgusting," Francisco told The Guardian. "Garbage is hated, ignored, considered smelly and rotten, but for me it has become a place to create monsters."
