These two Pixelatas are created from 4000 recycled cans and establish a contrasting conversation between the image of a girl and the deep and direct gaze of a chimpanzee.


The installation suggests how the chimpanzee, which shares 99% of its genes with humans, behaves so differently. It lives in harmony with the rest of the creatures allowing the ecosystem to be sustainable in the long term. However, the human being seems to function in the opposite way to the chimpanzee, living disconnected from nature, following an unsustainable life model.


For the second consecutive year, the Fuenlabrada City Council has collaborated with Cada Lata Cuenta to spread the message ​​of sustainability and recycling to the people through recycled art, reminding them that even during the holidays, they should never stop caring about the environment.

Participants are able to enjoy dozens of films, workshops and engage in panel discussions.

Thanks to the collaboration with the film festival, near Krakow’s Wawel Castle, our team in Poland was able to set up a wonderful Pixelata. Visitors had the chance to take part in the creation of a spectacular design made of two thousand aluminium drink cans! The installation was available in one of the most attractive touristic places in Krakow for seven days, offering the opportunity to at least 15,000 visitors to take pictures and reimagine the recycling process in the most creative way.
