I was gutted when I didn't manage to buy a soup can poster, however I soon got over it purely down to the subject matter. With the rise in food bank use in the UK, the poster couldn't be more relevant, even ten years after it's release. I'm sure that the majority purchased in the last few days will end up on the buyers walls and thoroughly enjoyed, but I'm also sure many have been bought purely to sell on for a profit, which is fine by me as I wont be spending the little money I have on a poster, especially something that reminds me that many people in the UK are still struggling as a result of austerity. As a response to the POW sale I have created my very own "soup can poster", only its not a poster, its a sculpture, it cost half the price (£5) and will benefit others as well as myself. the idea is to enjoy it for a few days and then donate it to my local foodbank. Lets start something good from all this, and follow in POW's generous footsteps. If anyone does decide to create there own I would love to see some photos   |

Top idea. I can't count I assume it doesn't have to be tesco or all tomato? |

If anyone does decide to create there own I would love to see some photos as a thanks for posting the Basquiat video, and to help set an example that we should be thankful and not greedy, you can have my Soup Cans poster (as long as it doesnt discourage you from your new project ) I've already got one and was gonna do a giveaway anyway |
