CANgsta's Paradise
I made the trek over to Battery Park to check out Canstruction in the WFC Winter Garden. Throughout the shopping mall, there are can sculptures of different themes. The sculptures are on display for two weeks and then donated to charity for use.
Can Mario 1-UP Hunger?
A giant Mario, presumably about to eat the mushroom.
Mario face close-up
A close-up of his face, full of beans.
Paper Mario
Paper Mario. Get it? Aww, nevermind…
Paint the Town "Fed"
On the other side, “Give” was written in blue.
Don't Let Hunger Spill
This was hard to guess without reading the description. It’s the southern portion of the US affected by the BP oil spill.
I think I 'Can'
MTA fielding an entry? This is a good cause, so the more cans donated to City Harvest, the better.
The Candard Hotel, New York
Like! The High Line Park as depicted in can form. Not entirely visible is The Standard Hotel.
FEASTer Island
This Moai was very photogenic.
Cups Can Only Spill
Nice, simple sculpture.
Tomato Tornado
This tornado was by SOM. Sorry about the yellow cones in all the photos :(
It's a Hit (to Hunger)!
Cue all the children yelling, “You sunk my battleship!”
Battleships close-up
A close up of the nitty gritty: Modern Naval Can Warfare.
Mr. Potato Head
The aptly named, Mr. Potato Head. Maybe next year, someone will attempt a Mr. Pita Bread Head.
Building Blocks Against Hunger
Building Blocks? AKA Legos
A-Salt on Hunger
It’s not immediately obvious what this one represents. If I understand correctly, it’s two individuals hugging each other – representing opposites (black and white). This was made with Evaporated milk cans and Hershey’s syrup.
