I Draw On Trash I Find In The Streets And Leave It For People To Find
I am in Dali, Yunnan Province, China. It has a very famous and beautiful old town with abundant culture heritage and natural resources. However, lots of trash cover the streets.
I decided to use this wasted paper for art so I started a project: early in the morning, with a pen, a painting board, and no paper, I cycle in the alleys of Dali Old town and collect wasted paper. Once I find some paper or cardboard, I dismantle the wrappers, flatten it, and draw the architecture in front of me directly on it. After that, it will be nailed to the wall exactly where I picked it so that it could be seen by more people.
I want people to see art in our everyday life, even if it’s on wasted paper.
Firstly, I find waste paper on the streets
Then I sit down where I found it and draw what I see around me
The last thing I do is leave the finished drawing on walls for other people to find
Take a look at few of my works

What you have, is an awesome talent but you have an awesomer heart.To do it on trash. That's great
You are a fantastic drawer. I always wanted to draw precisely your style. Here in Brazil (even here in Rio de Janeiro) there are not any drawing schools. Now I am 74 y/o, a Lawyer and I must accept the reality that one of my dreams did not come true. Sad. But congratulations anyway. Gilberto
To use trash as canvases is both smart and eco friendly :-) Great skills and a lovely process
I wish I could come across one of your beautiful treasures! Giving the world joy is a gift many do not posses. #admire
Love it! I like this idea. I used to draw graffiti on wasted paper with crayons.
Great work. Congratulations! What kind of fountain pen do you use? Wait your answer. Thanks!
beautiful drawings ^_^ i hope one day mine will be as detailed as yours
Damn! This is amazing! They are good enough to be in am art gallery.
I wish I would find one of your drawings hung on a wall nearby. :)
I thought this was really cool! I wrote an article to feature your work. Hope you love it! http://allday.com/post/9865-meet-the-chinese-artist-who-uses-cardboard-trash-as-his-marvelous-canvas/
I wished you would have started drawing when I was visiting this lovely town during my Yunnan trip. I really fall in love with the great scenery, the traditional building style and of course with the beautiful women living there... Keep on going with this good work!
Oh it's you again. Try to enjoy some of the nice things in our world for once.
