LOST IN MY CUPS

One thing I've been mucking about with recently is this sphere made of plastic cups, all stapled together. I made it out of sheer boredom, but its surprising how much fun it's been producing work with it. I also didn't expect it to be so multi-purpose.


For example....


It could be used as a pretty awesome room light




It can be used to make serious statues a whole lot less serious...





Also, in talks with one of my fellow art students about making a short film with it, entitled Lost in My Cups.


I'm actually kind of enjoying how usurping an object, and making it something that was never meant to be anything, can be put to several different fine arty uses. 

It's a funny old world, eh?
