A street in Phuc Tan ward in Hanoi has been decorated by series of art displays that have been made using recycled rubbish. The video was taken on February 20 in Hanoi City, Vietnam

The art pieces are being displayed as part of a project launched by the People’s Committee of Hoan Kiem district.

The main materials used in the pieces includes bottles, plastic jars, glass, and old wheels.

A range of colourful artworks captures the public’s imagination.

Nguyen Van Hong of Hanoi says each of the pieces has served to transform the street, whilst encouraging local residents to become more aware of environmental protection and maintaining hygiene standards.

Painter Tran Pham Yen The states that the artworks have been created by 16 domestic and foreign artists with the aim of encouraging local people to lead a better and more sustainable life.

Sixteen artworks made from recycled materials have been placed along the old wall, which was built 20 years ago to prevent people from encroaching on the river bank.

Among the most eye-catching pieces, the installation titled Thuyền (Boat) by Vũ Xuân Đông made from 10,000 used bottles seems to float along the old wall full of graffiti.
