My PVC pipe celebrating the life and culture of Barrio CGT on the outskirts of Berazategui, Argentina. Side View
View from opposite side showing portrait and skateboarder
PVC pipes as blank canvases - ready to be blitzed and blinged with an incredible array of materials.
The wonderful young poeple I had the delight to work with on this project. They are from the Barrio 'CGT' on the outskirts of Berazategui city.
Working hard sticking and taping tiles to the pipe.
Boys from CGT working horizontally on the pipe.
It was very cold working in such a large airy space. With hats and gloves..
Perseverance paid off with some beautiful results
