Plastic Containers turned into Sea Sculptures

Pet Sawaguzo Installation2
Veer writes:

Taking art from found objects to new depths, Miwa Koizumi uses heat guns and soldering irons to sculpt startlingly realistic sea creatures from discarded liquid containers. Her PET project cleverly takes its name from PET (polyethylene terephthalate) - the highly recyclable, plant-based oil the containers are made from.
