The 17 foot recycled styrofoam Hummer was created by American artist Andrew Junge.

Andrew created the biggest symbol of American excess out of one of the most non-recylced materials that fill our dump, STYROFOAM. Junge scavenged his styrofoam from dumps to create the piece that represents our excessive cultural consumption.

“I wish to examine and re-contextualize found objects and materials, to invest them with new life, and to sanctify – or at least acknowledge their presence in the world. My aim is to turn the lowest form of human productivity, trash, into the highest, art – a kind of modern alchemy.”
