Animaris Rhinoceros - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WcR7U2tuNoY
On his websight he says
"Over time, these skeletons have become increasingly better at surviving the elements such as storms and water and eventually I want to put these animals out in herds on the beaches, so they will live their own lives"
As if they are liveing things, and can live a life on there own.
Volkswagen bought heis idea for a telivition advert.
Beach Monsters - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WcR7U2tuNoY
For Beach monster he used plastic yellow tubes to make these cretuers which are able to walk as the wind blows! They seem to just scuttle around elagently and easaly off into the distence.

Edimburgh Black Rainbow Explosion Project 2005
Was made out of 99 wolves made from fabricated sheep skin and stuffed with wier and hay.
The Concept; With few wolves scattered in the front of the gallery, all 99 wolves run, gallop, and jump towards the far end of the exhibition hall, where a wall stands. The bravery of the wolves is met head on by the unyielding wall. Asmthe leading wolves go down, many more follow with force and determantion. As those in the front fall and pile up, those behind take up their positions.
I think its ironic that the wolves are made out of sheep skin. It is as if the wolves here are following each other like a heard of sheep.
