These sheep are made, (obviously), from used phones.

I wonder if they ring?

They are wonderful! I hope that's an office lobby rather than a gallery - there should be more art in the workplace imo.

I see wires leading to them, so I assume they're working phones. Dare I ask where the keypad is?

Oh that's amazing. That's the best piece of sculpture I've seen in years!

Do androids dream of them?

So many puns, so little time.

I really like these, though. Very interesting.

instead of "ring ring", would it go "baa baa"?

..i wonder if you could shear one..

It's the Museum of Telecommunication in Frankfurt. Did anyone notice the hooves? ;)

That is most excellent. I want one.
monster • Jul 31, 2008 12:30 pm
in fact I want one woolly baaad, so I feel the need to ram the message home by lambasting ewe until I get one.

ok. it's out of my system now. I'm not spinning a yarn.

Oh, those are cute! :)
The heads/faces remind me of those tower-climbing babies, but these are cool, not weird. :D

Cuuute. In a herbie hancock "rock-it" video, sort of way.

It might be creepy to be the night security guard however. "ring" "rrriiing"

This could usher in a whole new era of phone sex.

I think the most cleverest part is their feet/paws/hooves/receivers.
