Albino Carreira fell on a construction job in Toronto, Canada. It took surgeons inserting six screws and two metal plates into his back to help him, but he was unable to work again. To distract himself from his physical pain that would strike in the middle of the night, Carreira started making creations out of wood, unwanted toys and metal. The art spread across his entire house. He says there are about 350,000 pennies attached to his home.
