A colleague at work showed me a wonderful post over at Environmental Graffiti called Incredible Shadow Art Created From Junk. Many of the pictures have been pulled from a Flickr feed created by pashasha.

Who’s Are The Artists?

The artists that created these three pieces are Tim Noble (Born 1966) and Sue Webster (Born 1967). They live and work together in Shoreditch, East London. Some of their notable pieces are made from piles of rubbish collected from London streets. A light is projected against the pile, and the shadow on the wall creates an entirely different image, typically one of the couple themselves: this is not at all apparent from looking directly at the pile. Their work was included in the exhibition Apocalypse: Beauty and Horror in Contemporary Art at the Royal Academy in 2000, as well as the opening show of the Saatchi Gallery in County Hall.

I hope you find this as inspiring as I did!
