Straight from the London Punk scene of the 1980s-1990s, Tim Noble and Sue Webster combine talent to create art from a pile of trash. I first came across these artists a few years ago and stumbled across them again as they continue to sculpt every day items into pieces of art. Most of their famous works are from shadow art; using trash to create a sculpture. When you shine a light on the garbage, you get an image on the wall behind it. I love seeing the nothingness of the trash pile; its merely just a mess you have to clean up. But when the right light and angle is taken from it it turns into something different.
