Plastic bag animals

Every time we start to think that street art is starting to get a bit tired and boring, along – out of nowhere – comes something that reconnects us with why we fell in love with street art in the first place.
The story is that there’s an artist who’s been making these animals out of discarded plastic bags. He (or she) ties the bags to the ventilation grates above the subway lines so that when the subway rushes through underneath, the animal jumps up and springs to life.
