Mind-Boggling Shadow Art from Trash Sculptures

British artists Tim Noble and Sue Webster are a creative team known for their experimental art including these mind-boggling light and shadow sculptures. The duo forms abstract works from, which upon first glance, look like nothing other than straightforward piles of trash. The excitement for the viewer comes when a single light illuminates the pile and creates an entirely new piece of art–usually portraits of themselves–formed with the combination of light and shadow projected onto the wall.

Throughout their careers, the artists have, “played with the idea of how humans perceive abstract images and define them with meaning. The result is surprising and powerful as it redefines how abstract forms can transform into figurative ones.” In addition to these shadow sculptures, the team also creates neon light pieces that reference pop culture and flash messages of “everlasting love and hate.”
