Giant Gorilla made of recycled tires



GIANT RUBBER GORILLA

In Viikki (suburb of Helsinki, Finland), we now have a 5-metre high Gorilla made out of recycled tires. I love this beastie. Villu Jaanisoo created this work entitled "Everything is Possible" for a Finnish invitational art competition and won. Brilliant! There is something wonderful about reusing waste for public space art.
