A Sprinkle of Salt and Pepper Helps the Debt Go Down
via MocoLoco
Drowning in Debt Salt and Pepper Shakers by Sebastian Errazuriz
Says Errazuriz, “Like so many of us, these two humble workers have found themselves buried under an inescapable debt. Whether its debt or unemployment, these two little salt and pepper shakers humbly attempt to represent the struggle that is the sign of our times.”
“As soon as the seasonings are used the two workers slowly emerge, only to find that they will soon be covered again.” More at Kikkerland and Sebastian Errazuriz. [more]
