You’ve got a bunch of cardboard lying around – what are you going to do with it? Do what artist Chris Gilmour does: bend, twist, break, cut, glue, and sculpt yourself a bunch of thing’s you’d rather have! I know I’d trade in all my cardboard if I could instead have a 1:1 life sized perfect replica of a bike made out of cardboard. Wouldnt you?

All my life I’ve wanted a cardboard replica of a bicycle that looks like I could almost certainly just ride it away. Look at the chain on that baby! It’s incredible!

Chris Gilmour is hot off his last show All things solid, Freight and Volume, in New York, and it looks like he’ll have no trouble looking for his next venue! You’d better believe that if he’d have a show of the sorts of cardboard fantasies in this post in my city Minneapolis, it’d be a mad rush. Hipsters everywhere.

Business people, art collectors, cool people who love the board, everywhere.
