hey there,

lately I’ve seen something I regard as incomparable yet.

It’s an ambitioned and also somehow funny art-project called “Barrel Art” by the London based firm Johnson Banks (johnsonbanks.co.uk).

It’s about sculptures made from Johnny Walker Scotch Brand’s Barrels. I think by losing their actual sense and getting destroyed for arts sake, they somehow resurrect as really enjoyable and also worthy pieces of modern art.

While you can visit the actual firm’s page (mentioned above), there is also a flickr gallery showing all pieces
