Meet Mohsen Lihidheb - the Rubbish Artist from Tunisia

Mohsen Lihidheb preserves rubbish from local beaches to raise awareness about the environment and the plight of refugees. Mohsen has been collecting objects he found on the beaches of Zarzis for 23 years - items like bottles, buoys and dolphin bones. He puts them on display at this own small museum or turns them into art installations. The Guinness Book of World Records recognised him for collecting 26,820 items in just six years.
