Despite Best Intentions, the Cosmic Ego Grows

A project in structural engineering from the fifth grade, revisited. It is made of about 5,500 straw segments and dressmakers pins. The form unintentionally grew into a giant phallus/coke bottle, so I took it apart and inverted it in on itself. Now it functions receptively and constructively instead of being a strange monument to manhood or commercialism.
