If a giant alien landed on earth and poured molten aluminum into a skyscraper melting a few thousand people then yanked it all out to sell as art I would not approve. I don't know about this though. I think ants are kind of cool so I am biased to begin with. |

Fire ants suck...but this is cruel and dumb. Art and education? Well, my 3 yr old does "art" everyday at school with fingerpaint...and other than safety issues, my 3 yr old could easily do this "art"  and is this fucking caveman education? I don't get it...has this guy every heard of a computer? Way to profit from the suffering of other beings

It seems like the ants did the artwork and the guy just copied it. Wow. So I went to the actual site and it linked to his ebay page and his newest one has close to 100 bids and is over 4 grand with a day left. What the hell? |

I really like this idea. Its amazing how these tunnels could hold under the heat. |

Entomologists have been doing this for a long time for science, they should just recast those to sell, especially since it comes out in many pieces anyway. |

This is being auctioned off. This is cool looking but certainly not art. http://ebay-stories.com/antill-art-crea ... n-aluminum P.S. this is not a link to an auction, just a blog post on ebay |
