The Litter Bug Ant
Here's a cool idea by Richard Destito of the Gear Factory, Syracuse, NY.
The Litter Bug Ant
In spirit of Earth Day the ant is made from 100% found or reused material and was covered by the public with litter that they collected from Earth Day clean-ups happening all around the City of Syracuse.
From construction, to the materials used, and the process of completing the sculpture with other people, the Litter Bug Ant in this way is expressing that nothing in life is how it has to be, it’s all only what we choose to make of it, and by working together, with everyone contributing what they can, a greater good is achieved.
Physical Description:
- The Ant Garbage Monster is about 11 feet tall and takes up about a 6' X 8' area.
- It's structure is made of re-used welded steel rod
- He can be broken down easily for moving
- With the exception of the legs and base, he has all fully movable joints like a giant action figure!!
