Waar gaat het over?
Creatively and lovingly made at first by children for their own use, toys of recycled material have been on offer from the 1980s at traditional West African markets and are enormously popular. The Swiss collection comprising 150 items shown here has been amassed over the past ten years. Assembled with the simplest of techniques, toys such as motorbikes, cars, lorries, air-planes and military equipment are conjured up from all sorts of materials (wire, tin cans, plastic,wood, scraps of metal and cloth) with no limits set on their creators' imagination.
