These monumental sculptures are immediately identifiable by their distinctive colours and shapes as Tide, Downy and Penzoil bottles used as containers for common household products. Drawing inspiration from these mass-produced utilitarian objects, Coupland enlarged their scale and removed their labelling, calling attention to the sleek forms and inherent beauty of such everyday objects and their ecologically ambiguous contents.
