Zimbabwean Manners Mukuwiri was struggling to make ends meet and pay for his children's education until he started turning rubbish into art.

People with disabilities can often find it difficult to find work in the country, but the artist worked with what he could get his hands on, which included waste cans and bottle tops.

Now, his creations sell for up to $800 (拢615) and Manners is hoping to turn his hobby into full time career.
