Guzzler

I had originally considered calling this piece “Foreign Policy Machine”, but that seemed kind of heavy handed.

At any rate, he is clearly a big consumer.

Every element was found — scrap yards, second-hand stores, dumpsters — then cleaned, stripped, sorted and rebuilt. Found aluminum is TIG-welded and sanded seamless; nothing is cast. The electronics are salvaged from consumer devices, repaired and rewired so the piece does something when you touch it.
