SHUTTLE-BIKE KIT: "SBK Engineering conceived the SHUTTLE-BIKE KIT ® as a flotation, frame and propulsion/rudder package as a simple way to convert a many kinds of bicycles into a waterbike. The whole kit fits in a the included backpack.

Artist turns animals into everyday objects

'There is also irony and humour in my objects as well as a criticism of the way animals are treated by society.'"
