Almost a decade ago, back in 2007 (know it was because of the pictures' “Created Date”<\/em>), I came across a site that featured whimsical sculptures made out of Scotch Packaging Tape<\/strong><\/em>.  They caught my eye, so I saved a bunch of them that I’ll share with you today.<\/p>\n

I can’t find that site from 2007, but it looks like it got some coverage and probably led to Scotch Tape by 3M<\/strong> developing a contest “Off the Roll”<\/em><\/strong> – at least from 2010 to 2012.  (Can’t find anything before or after – and more on that at the end.)<\/em><\/p>\n

We’ll start with the originals that I came across back in 2007<\/p>\n

From that site, here is the 2012 Grand Prize Winner<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Here's a YouTube<\/em><\/strong> of how an artist goes about making a human cast, along with its installation and some pedestrians’ reactions.<\/p>\n
