Waste Landscape, an installation by French artist Elise Morin and architect Clémence Eliard, is composed of 65,000 discarded CDs. The artist envisioned Waste Landscape to be like “a still sea of metallic dunes.” The CDs were hand-sewn together into an amazing 500-square meter surface and then draped over inflatable mounds.  This is a traveling exhibition, but currently is featured at the Halle d’Aubervilliers of Paris’ Le Centquatre Art Space until September 10th, 2011.

Dutch Ink is an intriguing group of reverse graffiti artists that simply turn filthy, ugly, walls into pieces of art all over Durban, South Africa.
