Vik Muniz

Vik Muniz is an incredible artist that uses trash to make his artwork. Some materials he is famous for using is peanut butter and jelly, chocolate syrup and string. In this piece Muniz makes a seahorse out of gold scraps. This seahorse is part of a series, the series contains a seahorse a humming bird and a fish all made of the same material. The reason I chose this work of art is because I love how the seahorse looks so realistic even though its made of gold! It is so impressive that he can turn trash into something so beautiful.
