Sao Paulo street artist Felipe Carrelli transforms abandoned cars into art and garden spaces

“The government has a duty to take the abandoned car away when people in the community ask them. But the government isn’t efficient enough, nor does it have the desire to recover all of the abandoned cars in the city. So they support us in silence,” says Carrelli.
