Victor Nunes is a 64-year-old retired Brazilian art director who has a unique ability to transform discarded everyday objects into characters that convey emotions and tell stories. Using only a pen or pencil, he brings curls of salad, scissors, candy wrappers and other items to life. This type of art is called "Pareidolia" where the unconscious mind sees faces or figures in casual objects. Victor's illustrations encourage people to find beauty in ordinary things and see the world in a new way.
