It’s really hard not to love this homemade boat constructed from various discarded materials, including a whole array of bottle caps used to depict steam funnels. It’s a real testament to the idiom ‘one man’s trash is another man’s treasure’, and makes us dwell on the importance of how craft allows us to sketch out the world in the individual ways we see it. The steamboat measures 75cm long, 25cm wide and 30cm high.
