This is a brilliant combination of pixel art and street art.  The photo was taken by Annamarie on 9th Street west of 2nd Avenue in New York City. If you have information about the artist, please tell us in the comments.

As someone who once collected trash as art, and has an affinity for putting things into clear plastic containers, I loved Justin Gignac’s idea to sell cubes of New York city trash. Writes Justin: “I sell garbage. I scour New York City streets picking up trash. After filling bags with subway passes, Broadway tickets, and other NYC junk, I carefully arrange plastic cubes full of the stuff. Each box is unique and won’t leak or smell.” You can buy your own cube for $50 with free shipping anywhere. [via jamesyu at twitter]
