In actual fact, his pieces are crafted entirely from old blue jeans—which means that their attention to details is very impressive indeed.

Depicting the interiors of diners and bars, graffiti-covered abandoned houses, newspaper readers on the subway and other images of life in the city, Berry has turned the tough, utilitarian denim fabric into a versatile, artistic medium.
