Hubcap Creature Art Is Inmate-Approved


Those hubcaps scattered on the side of the road are no longer being collected by felons, but rather people who are debatably just as bad: artists. Hubcap Creatures is an art project that that takes those forlorn, castoff discs and transforms them into creatures ready to... Eat the souls of automobiles! Or something of that sort.

The artist behind all this is selling the creations and prices begin at $300 and go to upwards of $1,000, depending on the complexity of the piece and, we figure, the quality of hubcap (Wal-Mart versus BMW). My favorite is the Ford butterfly fish. He's so cute, yet so devilish. [Hubcap Creatures via Uncrate]
