"Jacob Epstein" 2008 swampthing
It was recently noted in the blogoscene that there is a deficiency in miami art postings, maybe it is because there are other more critical issues to consider, like getting the rent money. But like a good art-soldier, here is a bit of good news for artists who work with american marble aka styrofoam. As a fabricator to the stars I have been using eps foam professionally for years with great results... and allot of left-overs that are often re-used to make more art. Polystyrene is used in many plastics applications and is definitely not bio-degradable. Finally there is a 'green solution" to the great styro-dilemma. Thanks to new pal Will for the info:
Blue Earth Solutions - Blue, the new green. We recycle Styrofoam®™
Styroguy - Fun with styro-scraps.

Styrofoam is a curious passive metaphor for our unsustainable modern plastics dominated life-styles.
