I recently got nostalgic about a bike I bought as a wrecked, mangled mess. The picture on the left is the bike as best I could put together given the parts I received with the bike. The picture on the right is 2 years later after a considerable investment in time scouring Ebay for parts, fixing up broken parts, and getting it all put back together. Not counting labor I made a profit on this bike, and I didn't even sell it at Blue Book value. Counting labor on the other hand... Huge loss. But sometimes you can't put a price on enjoyment.

Vandalised car wreck
412 x 152 x 141 cm
Ford was sold a second-hand car that broke down within five hours driving time and went on to break down multiple times, subsequent to initial repairs that cost more than the car. After killing a cat on its first outing, losing a court case to get his money back from the trader, and continuous mechanical problems, Ford decided to cut his losses and publically destroy his cursed Nissan Primera.
On the 17th July 2010 a crowd gathered to assist with the destruction at an event called Smash N Tag. Ford provided safety gear, sledgehammers and spray paint, and there was the option to bring along your own weapon. Even on the day of its death, the curse of the car summoned rain. Participants donned hoods and brought weapons such as axes, bats and even an old Macintosh computer to attack he car with. Each volunteer had a minute to do whatever they wanted to the car, as long as it didn’t cause an explosion. The result is a collaborative (anti-)sculpture formed by public, cathartic action.
One of several visible shipwrecks in the Tobermory area. This one is visited by shallow draft tour boats during the summer.
I noticed this wreck at the prince frederick volunteer fire department, I'm guessing for training purposes as I've seen wrecks in that spot before.
This is probably my favorite page, so far. I got pretty creative with drawing a spine cracking. I love the blood effect. Might add some paint, but I think it's fine (for now).

A limousine stolen after Katrina, then wrecked, has since been further vandalized and harvested for parts. During December, a graffiti artist recently wrote "Merry Christmas, NOLA" across the side and painted a peace sign on the hood.
this rusting mass, parked on the east side of fraser island, is all that remains of the maheno. it was being towed to japan, from melbourne, in june 1935, when a cyclone tossed it ashore. climbing on the shipwreck is not permitted.

Aside from the Lone Mangrove photo, this has to be my absolute favourite from last month's trip. It's taken me a while to process it and be happy with the final result.
I know it is a weird kind of dimensions but that is what it took to really capture the scene. The storm clouds, the beams of sunlight, the wreck below, the pools of water reflection the sky. It's been a while since I have had the dilemma of trying to decide which is better, colour or black and white. I am really stumped!
B&W version here.
Installation at Tulane's Carroll Gallery, January 13 - February 11, 2011. From the exhibition statement :
"I am a recent transplant to New Orleans, and my introduction to the city was a wreck outside the windows of my soon to be home on Saint Claude Ave as I was first touring the live/work space. The sound of screeching tires and a loud crash drew me out the doors to the nearby Family Dollar only to find an unharmed obviously intoxicated man investigating his totaled truck and the light pole he wrapped it around. After signing a lease in August and settling down from a life on the road with traveling artist collective Transit Antenna, the wreck soon became a metaphor for the move, with my family’s crash into the Bywater driven only by our intoxicating love for the city. With the imprecision of a memory as the only reference, this installation attempts to cut, fold, and glue the scene with refuse from local dollar stores and cardboard packing materials from our move."
This Wreck really gave me some vertico few times and I had to focus on the path the bubbles went to figure out what was up and what was down.

The wreck of "Captain Leonidas". The cheeky captain sank his boat on purpose, then made an insurance claim. The subsequent investigation revealed that he had already sold the cargo he was transporting in Montevideo!
The Garden Island Ships' Graveyard, in the North Arm of the Port Adelaide River, offers paddlers a chance to experience part of South Australia's early maritime history.
The 26 wrecks at Garden Island are part of one of the world's largest and most diverse ships' graveyards. Boasting the remains of sailing ships, steamers, motor vessels, ferries, barges, dredgers and pontoons, the site provides a unique glimpse into our past.
The mudflats the wrecks lay on are bounded by mangroves – one of the few remaining systems in metropolitan Adelaide. This eco-system provides a habitat for dolphins, other marine creatures and bird species, enhancing a recreational paddler's experience.
The trail is marked by three on-water signs near the main group of wrecks, as well as two on-land signs at the Garden Island boat ramp.
