Oh it’s a civet cat. I was like, ‘lambs don’t crap coffee beans, what is this artist thinking?’ Now it makes sense.
Yes but it looks like a coffee berry, a civet cat and a coffee bean that was shat out the back end. With a stirrer.
Dave, I am surprised … this is a sculpture of certain items traded on the commodities markets. I thought you were some big day trader or something. (If I read the Open Thread I would probably have a better understanding, but it’s not like we’re friends or anything.)
dibs- I have a question for you on MM’s tree forum question. Seems the locust is not the only tree that suddenly died.
So we’ve got a sculpture depicting the production of Kopi Luwak, the “processed” coffee bean made when a civet cat (pictured) eats the coffee berry and shits out the coffee bean.
They are found in Indonesia & Vietnam and trust me, it’s VERY good coffee.
