Vik Muniz made this beautiful artwork out of garbage in 2008. I believe this signified a lot due to the fact that technically garbage is what makes up the universe. Though it does not start off as garbage, it is transformed into it by humans. As humans, we use many items, and then its remains become our waste. And as the saying goes: one man's waste is another man's treasure. With that being said, this is why I believe that this piece of artwork is so profound. The man in this artwork is literally carrying other men's waste.
