Activists target naked trees in Melbourne

I found this strange piece of guerilla art on Bridge Road this morning. It seems to be made of tulle, and ribbon, and was sewn around the tree with fishing line.

Has anybody spotted anything similar in Melbourne? I’ve narrowed the culprits down to overexcited Year 12 graduates, environmental activists, or aliens. It definitely wasn’t there yesterday!

It reminded me of Carol Hummel’s tree cosy project, which I came across a couple of months ago.

    How odd! o.O

    I love the tree cosy though, it looks like Dr. Seuss!
