A Box that Holds Air

A Box that Holds Air

So I finally got around to posting about the project, kinda. The day after we first brought in our objects I was in sculpture and had an idea, a silly idea, but an idea nonetheless. I though it would be fascinating to have a box that holds air, at first I though maybe just a wispy looking thing that kinda represents floating or something but then I realized it would be so much more fun to actually have it hiss with a release of air when you uncork it. The original concept was a bottle but I fell in love with the irony of the name "A Box that Hold Air". I also like the idea of having "vintage" bottles of air from different places just sitting around. "Why yes lets open a bottle of 2012 colorado air, a very smoky smell that year."
