metal

i love these "industrial doilies" pcs by cal lane.

(more images at cal lane)

it reminds me of that filigree bulldozer in central park a few years ago by wim delvoye.

he also has these really creepy stained glass windows out of x-rays.

and he made filigree metal caterpillars/cement mixers/flat beds...

and an amazing tower.

check out his website wim delvoye for more of his work.  (the filigree metal stuff is awesome, but the tattooed stuffed pig skins seem a little wrong...)
