Wooden Shrimp Automata Prepare a Lovely Meal for a Picnic Date In the Park
by Lori Dorn from Laughing Squid on (#6XFC8)
Italian artist Amedeo Capelli of Stoccafisso Design, who creates wonderful wooden mechanical toys, used his hand-carved series of whimsical shrimp automata to make it look as if they were going on a picnic date.
The shrimp who offered to bring the food was shown busily preparing a scrumptious meal for two. The shrimp packed it up and then rode a bicycle to the park, where they met to finally enjoy the meal together.
