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

I'll have to add it to the trashions pile at the Cascadia Walmarth store.

these come in a very low quality scratchy woolike cotton, the softer more expensive option still leaves skin abrasions

The sidewalks outside the Walmarth store are still under construction, but there will be plenty of room for a DKULT rain barrel. Walmarth - Make Art, Quench Thirst, Live Better.

That looks great. just get a ladle and all you can drink self serve!!  they often have face painting and baloon animal makes for the kiddies, maybe you could have someone make animals out of seaweed and garbage? and instead of face painting you could use mud

Comment by Cascadia Artpost on May 17, 2015 at 5:45pm

Great idea! We'll add a second DKULT blue barrel and put it outside the store at the Grand Opening as a rain barrel for thirsty passerby Cascadians.

Questions have arisen in some quarters of The Eternal Network that can be summarized as, "What are trashions?" Mail artist Jennifer Weigel coined the term "trashion" and recently sent me a sample selection of trashions. These have been incorporated in a corner display table of the soon-to-open Walmarth store in Cascadia city. This weekend a few Cascadian shoppers selected at random were given a sneak preview of the store interior and the Walmarth store staff in their snappy new orange tunics and sky blue slacks. Attached is a ceiling photo of the trashion table. The store will also feature a blue DKULT "Daily Specials" barrel and a rack of "clothes to go," as well as a bountiful counter of mail art supplies. The excitement is building for the Grand Opening this summer as the final lighting fixtures are being installed and the exterior of the building gets the distinctive Walmarth sign and awning.
