"If trashpo has taught me anything its that every windblown street corner and cyclone fence is a veritable Dick Blick of free art materials."

Zen and the art of Trashpo great stuff posted here!

Comment by DKeys on May 30, 2012 at 9:04pm: I'm completely trashpo biased, but this is my FAVORITE piece that Nancy Bell Scott has ever sent me. She has managed to display her signature style with raw trash materials. I think it qualifies as Vispo as well?Really fantastic

Comment by DKeys on May 30, 2012 at 8:59pm: Wow Neil--we can only hope Vizma scanned before she sent it sounds fantastic

Love the dumpster diver Stephanie-in expensive leather shoes no less!

Traspo collage on old Latvian book page untitled;"at the threshold of art, homemade rubber stamps, cut outs, (and here's the Kicker....) Real Aussie Chicken feathers!!!!!

Comment by DKeys on May 30, 2012 at 7:02pm: You know it's 2012 when mail art and Dkult infiltrate the mass media- We have to indoctrinate them in the ways of trashpo. In the future there will be no more landfills--only really great hotel art, scrap sculptures, and plastic bag clothes
