Inflatable Subway Art of Joshua Harris

Joshua Harris Street Scultpure

We’ve heard of wooden and ceramic sculptures, but the beauty of artwork is that there is no limit to creativity of an artist. Joshua Allen Harris has created quite a buzz with his inflatable street sculptures of animals.

Guess what he uses to make them, shopping bags, trash bags, and tape. Its simple, yet executed stunningly. Joshua ties the inflatable animal onto the ventilation grates and it inflates with the wind caused by the subway underneath them.

So you walking on the street and you see some trash lying on the sidewalk and then suddenly it transforms into a fascinating figure. Watch the video below to find out more on this unique street art.

Joshua has made a bear, giraffe, and people have liked his creative piece. It really amazing, when there is air passing through the vents the giraffe stands tall and as soon as the subway passes away, it falls flat on the vent.

Joshua is well-known for creating a variety of subway characters, including mythical and mysterious creatures that are several grates long. So beauty lies in simplicity!
