P O P   W A S H  

This absurd, crazy project is an evolution of the "Washingames" work. If you didn't see it yet, I recommend you to take a look at it now clicking here because it will explain few things. Anyway; I had so much fun wasting my time sitting on the floor taking picture while my washing machine was working that I decided to do again, and this time with a clear plan in my mind: to take everything colorful or strange I could put my hands on and pop it into the drum to see what pictures could come out! Now they are not masterpieces of course, they're just odd and funny, but I have to admit that I find this photos very uplifting. Especially the ones with the... frogs! No, not real frogs, I'm not that crazy, I would never do such a horrible thing! The frogs are just rubber frogs, bought in Woolworths. Now: I really don't know how the wildlife photographers can take those fantastic picture that we see on National Geographic but I have to tell you, it must be a hell of a job! Me, with 24 rubber frogs in a very small place, I was able just to take a lot of pictures of tiny hands and feet desperately waving in the storm of the rinse! A pathetic performance for a photographer, I have to say. But at the end this inconvenient has become -as often happens- a good chance to create something hilarious.

The "Pop Wash" album shows three different set of materials: in the first six photos, two skeins of wool were used, then our beloved 24 rubber frogs and in the last nine pictures I filled my washing machine with 500 neon coloured straws.
