Who would have thought – foam cup art
August 4th, 2009
We’ve all spent hours upon hours doodling on our notebooks at school, on napkins in coffee shops, or even on our hands it seems, but Cheeming Boey takes doodling to a whole new level. He draws intricate designs with his Sharpie pen on polystyrene foam cups!
Granted, it’s a unique idea, Boey is super talented (it can’t be easy drawing on foam) and the result is visually beautiful (and could look even better if some of them had a bit of colour maybe?), but what do people do with the cups once they’ve bought them – and at $120 to $220 a piece, they’re really not that cheap…? I guess art doesn’t need to have a use though, it’s just there to be admired and appreciated, right?
