An annual art competition is putting a new perspective on canned food.
The Canstruction design competition brings together architects, contractors and engineers, who team up to build structures of unopened canned food.
The contest features a wide range of sculptures, like one of a person "man-spreading." There's also Batman's signal and a hand holding an 8-ball.
Organizers say the competition has been capturing the interest of New Yorkers for generations.
"The public loves it. We've got, we have kids, this is our 23rd year, and we have people who were children who now bring their children every year," said Jennifer Greene, a founding committee member of Canstruction New York. "It's just been great"
"I think it's fun and it's creative," said one attendee. "I think it's interesting what someone can do with cans."
"I've been coming for years," said another attendee. "I love the art aspect of it and, but more importantly, I love the cause."
When the competition ends, the canned food will go to City Harvest, which distributes food to those in need.
The sculptures will be on display at Brookfield Place in Lower Manhattan until November 16 from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. daily.
