Well, who says you can’t have a fashionable mask? Fashion photographer Marcio Rodrigues certainly knows how to up the fashion game with masks. Hence he created a mask with human waste and garbage. The items he used in his mask hadn’t been picked up by trash collectors due to the pandemic. So, he used the trash to create the mask and we must say the outcome is quite insane!
