Mbongeni Buthelezi from Johannesburg recycles plastic waste into art, tearing off strips of colour and melting them onto a home made plastic canvas.

When he was young he could not afford pain so he decided to use waste plastic instead.

In 2011, Johannesburg Art Gallery hosted Buthelezi’s mid-career retrospective. Buthelezi’s work has been exhibited in the United States, Canada and Europe.
