Tom Deininger uses trash to make absurdist sculptures that become lifelike animals from one angle.

The Rhode Island -based artist got the idea for creating sculptures out of trash when he saw plastic waste washing ashore on a trip to the South Pacific .

He said the act of making his art helps quell some of the "gut sickness" he feels when he observes the destruction of the environment.
