Up next: transforming this red shopping cart full of 1 square foot pine tiles into an art piece that is an improvement over an installation featuring a red shopping cart full of 1 square foot tiles.
This might be harder than it seems. That’s a pretty sweet red shopping cart.
Here’s a random finished piece from my series of prints on trash. I am submitting some stuff to a group show featuring art made with recycled materials, so it’s actually not all that random.
What was more random was the inspiration to fabricate these pine boxes over the summer. I remember thinking it would be cool to design the one on the left with a sliding plexiglass cover so I could fill it with something later. Turns out the something was landfill, and I really like the “art materials” bag visible on the end:
