Disguises and Trojan Objects

Im getting quite caught up in the idea of making something like Pasiphae's wooden cow. I was looking a while back at the possibility of using novelty bins in the shapes of hippos, frogs and birds as a kind of 'costume' which a human form could be fitted into.


This also seems to fit in with the idea of a kind of trojan horse or a wicker man, both of which have very different meanings, so the context of a wooden cow could easily be confused.



Fitting in with my own images of building a wooden cow using nothing but wood and my hands, I found this rather strange object online.
