I am really digging working with clay and bottles. Here is a sitting area that accopanies that gin bottle wall I posted earlier. The bench is made from eco-bricks, alas, it wasnt so comfortable. So I thought, why not sculpt a comfortable chair onto it?! The clay/sand/straw mix we are working with becomes super strong with just a little cement powder added– yet remains imminently hand sculptable (unlike regular cement). Beside the chair is a chess table made with gin bottles filled with alternating colored water. The switch turns on a light underneath to illuminate the whole thing at night. 🙂
