Recycled lottery tickets turned into works of art

How many times have you dreamed of going rich overnight and have wound up buying a lottery ticket? How many times have you actually won anything? And just how many times have you torn away the ticket in frustration and tossed it away? Well, it has probably happened before, with tickets being tossed into bins every time the lucky draw is called out. Fetch all those lottery tickets, quit dreaming about the riches, use a bit of innovation and “zap!”, you have yourself a piece of art! Artist duo, Ghost of a Dream have come up with pieces of art, all made from discarded lottery tickets. These include the Dream vacation 2008, a pair of palm trees and a speaker to remind you of those holiday resorts, an eagle in the “This Is It” collection, the “Dream Car”, a Hummer look-alike made from tickets and lots more. The duo has also created the “Dream Home”, with walls and furnishings made from tickets.

Maybe the tickets you brought yesterday doesn’t get you a car or a home, but what the hell! Just collect them all from your neighborhood, and build a car or a home for yourself! Three cheers for recycling!
