Police in Canada are asking the public to be aware of the Bubble Wrap Bandit.
I coined that. Should probably trademark it.
A guy in Vancouver, British Columbia, allegedly walked into an art museum last month and vandalized a piece of art that included sections of bubble wrap by popping the bubbles.
Completely understandable, really. It’s irresistible.
The piece, titled “Delta Trim,” was created in 2018 by Maureen Gruben, an Indigenous artist from the Canadian Northwest Territories. The guy doing the vandalism was caught on video
“It is very upsetting to see the blatant disregard towards the artist’s time, energy and creative expression that it took to create this piece of art,” Cst. Tania Visintin said in a release.
The repairs to “Delta Trim”, if even possible, are estimated to cost between $5,500-6,500.
