It's a bird! It's a plane! It's a recycled Superman cup! I'm glad this is no longer in service, I got a seriously plastic smell on my hands hitching this up...
Materials: found plastic shards, cotton cord, felted wool ball.

  1. I love the politeness and respect that you give these dirty filthy remnants of faded glory pop icons! the idea that this cup ever intended to provide a personal service to you is very dignified on your part! But, maybe these objects DO have a life of their own after all........and demand our respect. As I write this, a robot (with overwhelming MUSAK is saying to me: "thanks for calling southwest airlines.......etc.. we apologize for the inconvenience".......but maybe her really means it too!

  2. Thanks! What I was thinking about when I found those shards in the street was a story about a Bower bird who decorated his nest/shrine exclusively with blue ballpoint pen caps to stunning effect. That crappy plastic blue sure does stand out....
