While out walking about East Vancouver with my neighbor's dog Miss Hailey, I discovered some very interesting public artworks, all made from throw-away items, nailed into the hydro poles along Strathcona sidewalks.
Not sure if these are all created by one person but suspect they may be created by several artists. I decided to follow the sidewalks throughout the neighborhood, looking more intently for these art gems nailed into otherwise ugly hydro poles.
These artworks are made from tin cans, drywall, plastic pieces with words, and intricately painted or collage.

I am not sure how long these little art gems have been posted as somewhere obviously older than others while new art pieces have been added sporadically over time. Sporting my trusty Canon Digital Rebel camera, I went out to photograph the displays of Hydro Pole art, and while I was looking up the poles getting my snapshots, the passersby were sure to wonder what sort of drugs I might be on... of course I am searching for art and inspiration in the most unlikely places.
