An artist turns trashed mattresses into sculptures that look good enough to eat

Most of us go to great lengths to avoid those mattresses tossed out on the street (because bedbugs.) French artist Lor-K, however, turns them into art.

In a series of photos posted to her Facebook page, Lor-K has been documenting her latest series, EAT ME. The basic gist: She finds an abandoned mattress, slices it open, and transforms it into a giant food-shaped sculpture that she displays right on the sidewalks of Paris.

Here are a few of her most incredible works. For GIFs of the actual construction process, visit her official website.

Here's a giant slice of pizza, complete with bell peppers, mushrooms, and one black olive.

This cupcake features sprinkles made out of mattress foam.
