Berlin, Germany-based artist Miriam Jonas sculpts detailed portraits of popes out of Play-Doh in fish tin cans.

Some consumers do not know that what they throw away can be turned into art by third world type people. Haitians and other poor people often make decorative objects out of tin cans and scrap metal. Some Latinos make retablo and relicarios out of such recyclables.
Song for this post here.
