The Mutoid Waste Co

A woman called Ruby Blues has the best job in the World - she builds outlandish machines out of scrap metal with her boyfriend Joe Rush. Her resource is the legendary Mutoid Waste Co. and, of course, Glastonbury’s Trash City.

The Mutoid Waste Co is famous for building giant welded sculptures from waste materials and customizing broken down cars. They make large scale murals in the abandoned buildings where they also host parties.

The result of their work speaks for itself and personally, I can’t get enough of it.
