Bicycle Recycle
76” High
$1450
When a precise cut is necessary for sea-going
instruments, the Woods Hole (Massachusetts)
Oceanographic Institute uses a water-based plasma
cutter; what remains is the “negative” cut-out of
steel. One of these negatives here provides a base
heavy enough to allow the bicycle wheel above to rock
and roll.
Can you find the other “ingredients” in this piece?
The brass lighting accessories, couch spring, the
electric conduits? |
