Seagull made from six pack rings.

This is "Zippy"  The 4th sea animal I created from six pack rings, the three sculptures before him were also seagulls and the four together created "A Flock Of Seagulls"  (hah hah).  Seagulls are the most famous sea animals affected by this blight, mostly due to the ad campaign from the 70's, from which to this day still works and makes us cut them up-so they wont strangle seagulls, here is the famous photo on which that campaign was based:
Zippy was purchased during the Greenpoint open studios art show at Brouwerij Lane and has since fled the flock, but to this day he hangs above scores of beer drinkers bringing awareness to the masses.
If you would like to become involved in ocean preservation, here is a link to a great website:
