Description

This work serves as a field guide for a phenomenon common to all urban centres of the industrialized world, what are here termed windbags: plastic bags that have (one way or another) ended up caught in up in trees and are worn by the elements into unique shapes. Designed in a somewhat Gothic style and composed of scholarly discussion of the phemonenon and photographs of exemplary specimens (all from the downtown Toronto area) this piece helps us appreciate one of those things we usually ignore. Comes with an attached photo fron the field by Poolhouse.
