shipping container of raw materials, and the chair that became a birdhouse in the fields at the end of the day

…(my project for Stroom’s Foodprint Erasmusveld, an experimental-settlement/ecological-exposition opening September 30th) consisted of a 10am pick-up by the Refunc folks in their cool truck for a ride to the site where we opened up a few shipping containers full of the domestic cast-offs (chairs, sinks, furniture, tires, etc.) they had been collecting for me – to be reconstituted over the next two days into modest constructions for people, animals, plants and food.  (project webpage)
