The Madrid-based street artists behind Luzinterruptus have unveiled their newest work, "Jardín para un futuro, no muy lejano," or "Garden for a not too distant future." Wall gardens have become very popular because of our lack of space in urban centers, and Luzinterruptus sees the future of this trend taking after our tendency to package everything in plastic.
The "Garden for a not too distant future" features several small plants, each packaged in a food container.
