CANstruction

Every year my company, KPFF, participates in CANstruction.  CANstruction is a sculpture design competition, where the sculptures are made out of canned goods.  Awards will be given in several categories, such as "Structural Ingenuity", "Best Use of Labels" and "Best Meal."

Our sculpture this year is called "A Bridge Over Troubled Waters."  The sculpture features a suspension bridge over water.  In the water the word "HUNGER" is spelled out.  At one end of the bridge the land is green, representing a land of plenty, while at the other end the land is tan, representing a barren desert.  On the bridge we have a little truck with a can of green beans in the back, heading from the green side over to the tan side.

The sculptures will be on display in the Pioneer Place Mall through the weekend.  If you get a chance stop by and vote for your favorite sculpture for the "People's Choice" award.  (Umm . . . obviously that would be this one!)
