Sayaka Ganz creates amazing art menagerie from discarded plastics

I could never get enough of Sayaka Ganz . The Japanese-born artist saves the planet from plastic, at the same time creates brilliant animal sculptures. Raised under the Japanese philosophy of Shintoism, she hopes to bring greater awareness to the condition of our environment through her art. When creating sculptures, Sayaka organizes the reclaimed plastic objects into color groups, constructs a wire frame, and then carefully attaches the fragments of waste until she creates the shape she has envisioned. Her work has been exhibited in many places around the globe, among them Parma, Tokyo, Denver, New York, and San Francisco to name a few. Sayaka's Reclaimed Creations is currently on view at the Asian Arts & Culture Center at Towson University in Maryland. She regularly posts on Facebook, so be sure to like and follow her page for updates.

Meet the man with the world's biggest collection of 'Dragon Ball' memorabilia

A Dragon Ball fan has earned a place in the record books with a memorabilia collection of more than 10,000 unique items related to the media franchise created by Akira Toriyama. Hitoshi Uchida of Japan recently surpassed the previous Guinness World Record of 5,065 pieces set by Michael Nilsen in 2007. A fan since he was a kid, Hitoshi hoarded so many Dragon Ball merchandise over the years that he was forced to quit his job to focus on his collection. The Tokyo resident even has an entire room dedicated to 4,000 Son Goku items. WATCH:

Stencils and Subtlety

If there were a Michelin star for public murals, Roamcouch would have it. No debate. His art is an elegant contradiction; it stops you in mid-stride and makes you stare. You argue with what you see. He works with scenes from everyday life, nothing fancy, then drops them into backgrounds full of playfulness and surprise. His murals feel like small rebellions, and they insist on being noticed. Here are some of his recent street art works. Roamcouch has a Facebook page and a website where you can find all his work.
