Royale With Cheese Please



In the 'The Bombed Mache', a backyard mortuary of used garbage stands the 'Mini Burger' and 'Pickle'. The 7 ft high sculpture comprises of two 1972 used Austin Martin Cars, two Austin Mini car bonets, five car tyres and truck tyre. Created by the Ksubi Collective, the sculpture was built as a reaction to the disposability of used cars and car parts, and how they can be made into useful things like art hamburgers. 'Mini Burger' and 'Pickle' stands in a courtyard of Ksubi's Melbourne store, the same site where infamous 'Sign of the Times' sculpture once stood, before stolen and destroyed late last year. The sculpture was created for the 'High Art' event, a multi venue exhibition during the Melbourne Fashion Festival which concluded yesterday March 9. Thanks to slam for the feed.
