Summary/Abstract: The article deals with the problem of the ambivalent status of garbage in urban space. The author explores, based on the Diana Lelonek Center for Living Things project, how wastes co-create new ecosystems, undermining our understanding of the concepts of environment and wasteland, and resists the capitalist logic of overproduction and redundancy.
