So, you’re an art student and due to a shipping error you receive over 100 pounds of shipping tape. What do you do with that tape? Well, it should be obvious, build a huge shipping tape spider web!
The tape web was on display in June 2010 at the Odeon, an old stock exchange building in Vienna, and used 117,000 feet of shipping tape! The tape web art is intended to represent the choreography of dance, and how a dancer morphs her body into exquisite beauty.
This kind of epic scale art is no stranger to the design team, who are all veteran set designers with the design collective For Use/Numen which works with many foreign films.
The group has already been contacted by a number of interested parties who want to exhibit the tape spider web. Hopefully, this tape spider web craze really picks up and a new genre of art is born.
Now enjoy some tape spider web pictures! (Video of how it was made at the bottom)

The place looks like the lair of some overgrown spider in an alternate universe…

And here I was wasting my packing tape to seal boxes when I could have been making something as awesome as this.
Oh well… live and learn.
It looks very interesting… I think that SpiderMan just passed over there.
@Sonny: I agree
It’s pretty amazing.. Very creative and wonderful…Spiderman would love that..lol
