Betsey Alexander and Burnell Yow have not only been married for over 20 years, but have been a part of the Philadelphia Dumpster Divers for 20 years as well. They are both mixed media artists as well as musicians. They dumpster dive to show that even though there is such an excessive amount of trash it is possible to reuse material to create art. As Neil Benson, a fellow dumpster once said, “Trash is simply a failure of imagination.”
