Alina Szapocznikow is a Polish artist and photographer that used a unique method of using something most people find rather disgusting into an interesting photography piece. Alina used chewing gum as her main focal point for this series of work by arranging the chewed gum into all sorts of positions to mimic the positions of people.
By using something that most people would call a waste product as the main photo point, it shows how things classed as 'rubbish' can be used for an artistic purpose. I myself would love to try out this form of photography using chewing gum. I will think over what else I could do with hewing gum in order to take stunning photographs.
