Landfill Art Project
“On Our Children’s Backs”
i decided to add some commentary on the back of the hubcap… 
the piece shipped today and it is quite different than the artists who have submitted. please go to the side bar under blogroll and check other artists works on their website. to participate in this project and not make my own personal statement on how i feel about the cost of our environment towards the generations that will endure and pay for my generation’ mistakes, was near to impossible for me! being a mother and youth advocate i could not be silent.
the hubcap was tac welded onto the back of the metal chair and then one small screw w/japanese coin used as a washer added for strength and integrity to upper back brace. i painted the chair a flat black because i did not want it to distract the eye from the shiny hubcap and i wanted the chair to be somewhat of its own symbol. the back of the hubcap was screaming for commentary so it seemed natural…to me!
