We first read about it on Wooster Collective , then Little Shiva posted it on The Visible Trash Society, and Leila did an in-depth follow up on Everyday Trash; now Ruby Re-Usable wants to remind you to check it out if you need a little FUN in your recycled street art: Joshua Allan Harris’ Air Bear and Air Zoo
