Go Orgainic, Plop 'n' Grow

Go Organic Plop n Grow, depicts self-sufficiency, recycling, organic produce, global warming and the current economic situation within the setting of an allotment plot. Winner of the international art competition 3x3.
When the automaton is activated the shed door swings open, revealing the allotment keeper reading The Financial Times while sitting on his composting toilet. When he pulls on the toilet chain, it causes the carrots to grow vigorously out of the ground.
