This is my first post so I'm sorry if it looks weird or doesn't make sense! I saw this photo on www.artnet.com and it immediately made me think of Marcel Duchamp and his toilet, then when I read the little review, it does indeed speak of the guy - David Hammons as being "Duchampian". Get a look at this page about forest-related art, and see too the cool cast of Ann-Sofi Siden sqatting, having a pee in behind the trees! And see the rest of the website, there's some really cool things on it.I realise that other than the fact that the urinal is attached to a tree, it, and Duchamp's "Fountain", have no other connection to the forest. This mightn't even work so at least we can look at the pictures!
OK this is a really cool/clever idea!! The whole urinal tied to a tree... it kinda makes sense... in a weird way! lol
ReplyDeleteBecause like the last thing you would expect to see in the forest... when you need to pee is a urinal.... i think we will all agree on this lol
its like every tree is a different stall.. lol
I'll have to have a look on that site!!! but from the looks of this first photograph i'm expecting some weird stuff on there!
sorry if this dosn't make any sense what so ever... Because In my mind it all makes perfect sense!
I like it! its funny and really different (which makes it good) ive never heard of that artist Marcel Duchamp before and his work is really good. dont worry to much about it not linking strongly to the forest, remember we were told we could be as loose as we want with the theme....:)
