Ever heard of shopdropping?

Shop DroppingLet’s hear it from the shoppdropper himself:

“SHOPDROPPING is an ongoing project in which I alter the packaging of canned goods and then “shopdrop” the items back onto grocery store shelves. I replace the packaging with labels created using my photographs…

SHOPDROPPING strives to take back a share of the visual space we encounter on daily basis. Similar to the way street art stakes a claim to public space for self expression, Shopdropping subverts commercial space for artistic use. The photographs act as a visual journal of my travels over the past few years.”

Interesting concept.

Stay out of trouble my friend.

Walmart will have your butt handed. They don’t mess around in Arkansas.
