My Cups Runneth Over...




Someone is gracing Amherst with sculptures made from recycled cups. These beer cup flowers may be a memorial, sprouted where fraternity houses once stood on North Pleasant Street, right side, north if facing UMass. "Robotic Recycle Man" twists about in the garden between Rao's and the Bangs community center.

Whoever you are, one or many, we love and appreciate your work.

UPDATE: A barista at Rao's says Robot Twisty may be the work of a woman named "Smiles". For unknown reasons, by Sunday July 8, Robot Twisty was gone.

I noticed the ones at the former frat houses, but didn't get it! Hopefully they're not using new ones...

LOVE these photos. I also saw the ones at Frat Row, took a photo of them, but it didn't turn out anything like yours.
