Leading street art forum, the Wooster Collective reports on this barrel monster, created by artist U Live and You Burn, a student at North Carolina State University who was later arrested for stealing and damaging the traffic barrels. Frog Design Mind makes the point that we are so used to common objects like traffic cones that they lose their impact, and perhaps unique installations like this can help to draw the driver’s attention back to the original hazard. And indeed the construction company requested that the charges be dropped and even suggested that another barrel monster in the construction zone could help deter traffic there.
