Okay. So this is an extremely valuable Damien Hirst artwork called "The
Incredible Journey". It consists of real life, really dead Zebra
preserved in formaldehyde.
This is a $2.00 toy I bought at Pricebusters in Newtown of a plastic toy zebra suspended in silly putty. I've chosen this bizarre not-quite-a-knock-off as a starting point for my sculptures this semester.
Starting in paper and string.
Then cotton thread.
(scary reverse angle)
Masking tape.
Potato.
Masking tape and cotton thread.
Cotton thread and potato.
And a potato one again to round things off (Note the stripes).
This is the haul after week two. More to come I'd say. Stay tuned.
