“…fantastic New York street art in the form animals made out of shopping bags positioned on subway street grates that cause them to periodically inflate and animate…”
I think that this type of street are is super fascinating! I am not completely familiar with street art. It reminds me of a project I completed not too long ago in my Visual Literacy class. We had to create a sculpture that was able to be made completely flat. These bags start out completely 2-D and then inflate and continue to animate because of the air pouring out of the subway grates.
Simple materials are used to create such interesting pieces of art. This is inspiring and comforting to see such simple things turn into a big production.

That is really cool. That is not what I expected, but it is such a good use of the energy blowing off.
