Kim Alsbrooks paints portraits from the 17th and 18th centuries on found trash in the streets, but only pieces that are already perfectly flattened. She searches for the ideal flattened trash and then finds the ideal portrait to paint on that piece. Alsbrooks' work depicts people who lived before modern inventions like television and was inspired by finding her art online, which led the document's author to create a presentation about her unique artwork and the connections and ideas that can arise from creative works.
