Discarded Plastic Bags Sculptures by Khalil Chishtee

Artist Khalil Chishtee is a sculpter creating human form from discarded plastic bags. His works often express the feelings of sorrow, dejection and even victimhood. As they are created from items that are used once and then discarded adds to the layers of meaning in his work. His work is one part commentary on waste and consumption, and one part reflection of the human experience.

no glue is used, he ties the plastic in knots and fuses the shapes with heat from a hair drying to solidify his work.
