Enough of anything can make a something.  Or, at least that’s the case through the eyes of sculptor impresario Tara Donovan.  She masses common items – acrylic rods, plastic cups, straws, number 2 pencils, straight pins, and even buttons – creating formations that look to have grown inside magical caves.  I‘m in bulk buy heaven.
