Trash Bandit is an experimental multimedia artist from Germany whose work bridges the domains of found-object sculpture, digital collage, and sound art. Since emerging on the underground scene in Berlin in 2018, Trash Bandit has cultivated a distinct aesthetic characterized by themes of urban decay, consumer culture, and environmental critique. Drawing inspiration from the city’s ever-changing streets, the artist scavenges discarded materials—old electronics, scrap metal, plastic detritus—which are reassembled into playful yet provocative installations and assemblages.
The artist’s digital works, which often incorporate glitch effects and distorted samples, have been exhibited in alternative spaces across Europe, and their interactive performances blur the line between music, noise, and visual art. Trash Bandit’s practice is rooted in a DIY philosophy, embracing imperfection and chaos as generative forces. Harnessing both humor and urgency, their work encourages viewers to reconsider the value of waste and the creative potential inherent in everyday objects.
