I just got a tip on a really interesting artist from Cranbrook Art Museum's curator - California-based artistMichele Pred."The artist creates sculptures of confiscated items from airport security checkpoints-scissors, pocketknives, clippers, or recycled objects such as cell phone chargers. Most of her material comes from San Francisco's International Airport, obtained and confiscated since 9/11/2001."

What I want to know is how she was able to buy them off the Port Authority after they were seized from citizens, but at least it went to art. This makes me think that perhaps the confiscated liquid project I had been thinking about could be a reality, but it looks like it may have already been done anyway.
