Plywood Trucks, post Animalistic

This has been sitting on my camera for over a month now, I’ve finally had the chance to upload it. It’s one of the three pieces I’d shown at the Animalistic show, which was the beginning of last month. There are a few process photos after the jump..

Three of these patterns, along with about the same amount of non-decorated plywood became the three trucks – a zoo truck, a refrigerated truck, and a delivery van.

The story I’d associated with them was that a bear had escaped from the zoo truck, eaten most of the fish from the seafood truck before tiring and seeking refuge in the back of a delivery van – the pieces themselves were simply three trucks with little suggestion of what was going on in the story.

It’s interesting that as the zoo truck was the most descriptive truck in the story – it had broken bars on one side, where the other trucks were quite static in comparison – it was also the most popular of the three.
