When Potholes Become Art

You probably wouldn’t look at the eyesore outside of your house that claims a couple of hubcaps every week as art, but Claudia Ficca and Davide Luciano do. After a particularly brutal encounter with a “canyon-sized crater of a pothole,” they decided to channel their frustration into something creative and funny. The result is POTHOLES, a series of pictures taken in Montreal, Toronto, New York and L.A. that transform the mundane craters into something useful. I’m partial to Spaghetti & Meatballs on Greenwich St., pictured.

    Why not just write to your DOT Maintenance Department. I do that all the time and within 2 weeks the pothole is fixed and they send a letter back thanking me for the heads up.

    Or…..

    Go to home depot and get a bucket of asphalt patch and fill in the hole yourself.

    People are lame.
