Big Metal Flower
The title is the truth. Photos to prove it. Thanks to our professional artist friend Tim, the Clunkmaster, for his intrepid creativity in answering our assignment.
The story behind the pulley based carts: before we had lockers in the present day high school sense, steel mill workers would place possessions like wedding rings and watches in the tray. Using a chain and pulley, they would raise the tray to the ceiling and place a lock on the chain. The height would keep thieves from stealing possessions.
I'm not a flower person, but I think it is perfect for the space. The irony of using, well, iron to build a flower is art to me. Nice work, Tim!
