Bleeding gun


Crazy Clarks army supplies. $2.50 ish
Made in China


I had this idea of a bleeding gun
which with unconvincing
tomato sauce, is open to many potential interpretations:


a) Man made mass-produced objects having a soul.
Someone designed them; leaving the essence
of themselves in the object?

bi) The gun = a solid uncompromising object devoid
of organic
life. Then cut open to be shown as having a flesh interior,
and a soul - a surreal idea about how we perceive matter and
objects around us.


bii) One day we open our TV to find not components,
but instead flesh, bone and intestines,or slice a chunk from
a table to reveal shin bones and marrow?


c) Perhaps the fragility of the geopolitial landscape, with China rapidly
growing as an global player:

Is their economical/technological/military ascent built on fragile ground?

OR...

Dolphins around colour crystal from mega
cheapo
Aussie supertore Crazy
Clarks. The box doesn't
even have a title on it.
It therefore defies description.
($14.99 reduced down to $4.99 - bargain)
