Ye olde harvester of crops...
Harvester of souls...
Often extremely usable things can be harvested from incredibly UGLY things.
A glass dome can be gleaned from a hideous plastic clock made in China for 5 cents and bought for $2 at the Salvation Army op shop.
Ugly clock
Elegant 1900's museum style display: constructions of humanity and nature in sharp juxtaposition.
A smaller ugly clock purchased a week later became a house for this shell.
This post reminds me of a French documentary, The Gleaners and I. I think the film-maker refers to the painting at the top in it. Have you seen it?
