Consumerist points to Kelly Loudenberg’s video about the “shopdropping” a recent workshop with our friends from Eyebeam –
Shopdropping is a tactic used by artists and activists to clandestinely place altered or recreated objects into retail stores. Handmade labels were printed out for students to color, cut, and paste. The project featured real people who make the products, their name, and sometimes even a story. The intent is to reconnect the labor with the product.
