Francisco de Pajaro: Art is Trash

Visitors to Rijeka can't fail to notice the explosion of street art adding colour and different perspectives to the urban environment. Contributing to this expression in 2019 will be Spanish artist Francisco de Pajaro who makes sculptures from discarded items. The Barcelona-born artist uses old mattresses, boxes, food containers and bin bags to create playful creations which find the beauty in everyday, discarded items. His ongoing series of street art interventions is titled 'Art is Trash' and he will be in residence in the city for a two week period.
