Someone (alright, my ex...thanks, hon.) mentioned to me that the ugly black splotches on the streets of NYC were actually gum..."GUM!!!" I said, "no, way!" Like many things, she was right.
We talked about how cool it was that the gum blobs take on their own abstract shapes and how it might make a cool project, and then I broke my ankle (another story). As I have been healing I have spent a lot of time walking around very slowly, looking very carefully where my feet were going.
There is A LOT of gum on the streets of NYC.
So, I started taking pictures.
Only you APT could turn street gum into Art... Cheers, Kohl
ReplyDeleteIt is actually gum on the street (and if you wanted to be really accurate: gum on the sidewalk).
ReplyDelete"Street gum" does have a sufficiently dirty ring to it though, doesn't it? kinda like "street drugs" or "street walker."
