Joshua Allen Harris' Animated Street Sculptures


If you were to walk by one of Joshua Allen Harriss' sculptures on the streets of New York, you'd likely see nothing more than an unremarkable pile of trash lying on a subway grate. If, however, there happened to be a subway train passing below, you'd be greeted by a snarling polar bear, an shaky-legged giraffe, or a menacing creature like something from H.P. Lovecraft writhing and undulating before you. Soon enough, however, the creature would grow weary and melt back into the sidewalk, to await another gust of life from a passing subterranean train.
