 Up close it looks like a mobile phone graveyard, but step back and a bigger picture is revealed

About 7000 smashed, water-damaged and otherwise old and unloved mobile phones have been brought together to raise awareness about the growing mountain of electronic waste Australians are keeping in their homes.

"It was really fun," says Jordan. "We were like dumping boxes of cell phones on the ground and it was like pouring paint onto a canvas." It took Jordan and a dozen year nine students about four hours to construct one phone from thousands of others, the installation attracting scores of interested onlookers who snapped pics with their phones.
