Brown Baggin'

Dunno if this was planned or not, but between a giant octopus piñata (below) and some stack o' brown bags repurposed as a mushroom farm, it seems like Saturday was art day in #MiDoPa. I cannot say if this brown bag art project was done using trash scattered around the park or using new bags because, honestly, I was a little scared of talking to a pair of people rocking bucket hats while making such edgy and provocative art.

My friend Doug Rhodehamel has been making paper mushroom art for years. I wonder if the DP shrooms were done for or inspired by his SPORE Project.

BRUTE LABS, a Bay Area non-profit, was responsible for the monster pinata. Thanks for sharing a photo!
