Covers-Luis Urculo<a href="http://cargocollective.com/luisurculo" target="_blank">Luis Urculo</a> creates amazing sculptures of famous buildings from household objects like books, knives, napkins and bowls. Dubbed <a href="http://vimeo.com/32530333" target="_blank"><em>Covers</em></a>, the series investigates the connection between famous buildings and objects of consumption or souvenirs. Based on the concept of music covers (where bands create a new version of an old song), Urculo's sculptures recreate buildings out of objects to challenge our perception of the original concept. Some are totally obvious while others are a little more abstract - can you guess which sculpture is what? Read on for the answers!1
