Here is what the arist said about his work

"Many have asked where the idea for these pieces came from. Well, quite obviously from the bathroom! I had the idea while standing over a urinal many times a day and letting the shape inspire me. I saw a shoe, a mouth, a shovel, a cup, etc. The flower became the shape I finally chose partly because I love flowers and partly because it is the perfect contradiction - taking a mundane, even ugly object and transforming it into something different, even something beautiful.

I have also been asked about deeper meaning behind my pieces. I don't know that I have a very complete answer for that question. The creative process is 99% mystery for me. I create instinctually and reflexively. I plow ahead with an idea and don't really contemplate my intentions or motives until afterward. These pieces are still very new for me and I am just beginning to analyze their possible underlying meanings. I am, however, greatly enjoying the varied interpretations and observations of others.

The reaction to the show has been very gratifying. Three urinals were plumbed and flushable during the exhibit (not usable as urinals however!). In each of my designs the water flow is quite different and really adds to the experience. One of the main focuses of my pieces is their interactivity and it was great to watch people react to flushing these urinals. It almost always brought out a smile and sometimes a giggle or more. I am in full production on my next batch of flowers and look forward to a chance to show them off. Thanks for all of the kind comments!" - Clark

basically he knew some twat would pay 7k a pop!

if you think about it, those urinals are really a straight man's dream. flowers have been used as a metaphor for the vagina, so a guy could pee in a pansy pot thinking he's pollenating a hot bitchflower or something.

Was it really necessary to put teeth on those.

Just as long as there isn't one designed like a Venus Fly Trap. Now THAT would sort out the braves from the weaklings!

Imago said:

Urinals of any kind are the most hideous things ever.

They're a bit camp. It's like something someone like Prince would have. They're not for me though. I think the most satisfying pisses are ones in public where there's the risk of being caught.
