25m Waste Man
This 25 meter sculpture called Waste Man located in Margate, UK, was created by Antony Gormley. It is made entirely from recycled materials such as discarded broken tables, chairs, wardrobes, pictures, old rope, sofa padding and even toilet seats. Local volunteers, including teachers and builders, took two months salvaging junk for its construction.
His critics may say it is a load of rubbish and for once the controversial artist Antony Gormley would agree with them. This artwork was set alight recently as part of a day of filmed live performances called Exodus Day.
