Hillary Coe's Discarded Spray Can Flower Bouquets take the graffiti art form to a whole new level.
Coe is part of an organization called Can Love that uses abandoned spray paint containers and uses them to create a variety of new pieces of art. She claims on her site that "each step of the process, from extracting paint to opening and disassembling the can, lends itself to a new form of art."
Her flower bouquets utilize the tops and bottoms of the spray cans, which are then assembled into large vases reminiscent of real flower arrangements. The paint from the cans is then used to color each bouquet and finally the sides of the cans are added to a piece of over 200 cans. These Discarded Spray Can Flower Bouquets use the entire can to create something stunning.
