# Recycled Metal Car Replicas This Artistic Display Was Created by 50 Different Artists By Mishal Omar | Published 2016-08-31 | Autos Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/car-replicas References: [thisiscolossal](http://www.thisiscolossal.com/2016/08/50-artists-raid-a-polish-scrapyard-to-build-a-collection-of-recycled-metal-cars/?utm_source=feedly&utm_medium=webfeeds) & [facebook](https://www.facebook.com/GALERIAFIGURSTALOWYCH/) These car replicas were built to scale in a collaboration between 50 artists over a period of five years. The display can be found in the 'Gallery of Steel Figures' in Pruszkow, Poland -- a museum that is dedicated to showing sculptures from scrap metal that is found in a nearby scrapyard. The car replicas that were part of the artist collaboration are all built to scale and imitate the designs of the "[Mercedes-Benz](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/art-car-1) 300 SL, a Bugatti Veyron, a [Maserati](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/barbie-dream-gap-project) [GranTurismo](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fully-electric-car) and a Lambhorghini Aventador." The replicas are highly detailed and the artists took the time to make the exteriors as symmetrical as possible. This unique artistic collaboration shows the possibilities in art and design by reworking what most people see as trash into something that is beautiful and worth experiencing. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.8/10 - Popularity: 98% | Activity: 99% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Autos](https://www.trendhunter.com/autos) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Artistic Upcycling:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Exploring new ways to incorporate recycled materials into artistic creations. - **Collaborative Sculpture:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Leveraging collaborative efforts among artists to create large-scale sculptures with unique perspectives. - **Replica Design:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Advancing the art of replica design by creating highly detailed and symmetrical replicas using innovative techniques. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Art and Design:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Innovating within the art and design industry by embracing sustainable materials and collaborative projects. - **Automotive:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Redefining traditional car design by incorporating artistic elements and sustainable materials. - **Museum and Exhibition:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Revolutionizing the museum and exhibition space by featuring large-scale, collaborative sculptures made from recycled materials. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Miniature Art Cars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hot-wheels-and-daniel-arsham.md) - [Race Car-Inspired Dynamic Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gerry-judah-1.md) - [Car Part-Repurposed Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/furniture-capsule-1.md) - [Dynamic Car-Themed Structures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/veiled-porsche.md) - [Miniature Designer Collectible Cars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/art-car-1.md) - [Life-Size LEGO Brick Cars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/1950s-cadillac-fleetwood.md) - [Vintage Car Tribute](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lego-moc.md) - [Dynamic Artful Car Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bmw-m-hybrid-v8.md) - [Decayed Car Playsets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hot-wheels-x-daniel-arsham.md)
