One man's trash is another man's treasure 💙 Artur Bordalo, also known as Bordalo II (pronounced Bordalo Segundo), was born in 1987 in Lisbon, Portugal. He is famous for using street garbage and discarded materials to create stunning animal sculptures. His underlying message is about excessive consumerism and waste, pollution and all types of endangered species. His works, which can be found all over the world, are referred to as "trash art."
This free guide includes:
🔹51 art installations of Bordalo II in & around Portugal, broken down by region
🔹Interactive map with tagged locations (use the map icon below to toggle between the guide and full map)
🔹All but a few are found outdoors (some are in restaurants as noted), and free of charge to view!
This is not an exhaustive list by any means, and not all of his pieces are permanent exhibits. But hopefully it will help you keep your eyes open for Bordalo's work while traveling around Portugal. His art pieces are really unique and I hope you enjoy spotting them in the wild as much as I do!
