A cultural association - Teatro Metaphora proved this right when creating a beautiful installation of art by using drums of old washing machines deemed as junk.

Teatro Metaphora made these steampunk street decorations out of these washing machine drums for the festival of São Pedro in the town of Câmara de Lobos, Madeira island, Portugal.

It had taken around 6 months to collect 133 washing machines. Many of them were found in the street meant for garbage, some were donated by owners who couldn’t use them anymore.

With the help of municipality workers, the decorations were hung over the street. And voila!!! The effect is a stunning work of art.
