JUNKYARD CREATIONS WITH "SPACE TORTOISE"
In SPACE TORTOISE, a lonely tortoise tries to reach the stars using the items he finds in the bin – everything from a spacesuit to a hot air balloon. In this workshop, we think about other items that the tortoise could have made from discarded objects in the park: a hangglider from newspaper and dental floss? A car made from burger boxes, with onion ring wheels? The only limit is your imagination!
