New location, less time - but still alive.

Cartarts newest home base is Oslo, Norway. Time and energy is limited, but there are still carts to be found, -and spring is right around the corner! The story of cartart continues.

Gallery updated.

So what happens after?

Cartart is about inviting people to start noticing stray carts. There are so many. Once you start noticing them you'll see they can be found just about everywhere.

But what happens after?
Eventually someone goes to the effort to collect them. Not just the photos, like I do. Someone actually retrieves them from the streets and hopefully returns them to where they belong.

Here is an example of how this is done in Sydney, Australia.

To Everything There is a Season

a time for every purpose under the sun.

a time to be born and a time to die;

a time to plant and a time to pluck up that which is planted;

a time to kill and a time to heal ...

a time to weep and a time to laugh;

a time to mourn and a time to dance ...

a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing;

a time to lose and a time to seek;

a time to rend and a time to sew;

a time to keep silent and a time to speak;

a time to love and a time to hate;

a time for war and a time for peace.

...and now there is time for more carts :)

These are Hard Cart Times

Snow has hit big parts of Europe today, leading to airports and whathaveyou's getting closed. Cartart can report that also the stray carts of the world are suffering from this hard snowfall. 

Rescue a cold cart today :)

Holiday shopping cart tree

"The shopping cart symbolizes both people who have everything and people who have nothing," he explained. "Some people go to the store and put whatever they want to take home in a shopping cart; for other people, a shopping cart is their home -- it holds everything they have in the world. This doesn't leave anyone out."

Covered in guilt / carts

This nice stencil by Pøbel, and taken by Henning Lima at Mono in Oslo, illustates the feeling I have had whenever someone has asked me about cartart the last half year - covered in guilt / carts. 

I have finally managed to collect some energy, and I have started sorting carts. There is a big risk of some carts missing names, locations or both. For that.. I apoligize. 

Please let me know if you see that your cart has been posted and is missing some information.
