Designed for Coca Cola as an art installation for the 2010 FIFA World Cup, Eliot, the ‘crate-fan’ instantly became part of the Cape Town skyline. Porky Hefer, Eliot’s’ designer, was inspired by Lego building blocks and used 4200 Coca Cola crates (connected via plastic cable ties) to build the structure. Unfortunately he was removed in 2014. All materials used were recycled afterwards, the scaffolding was reused and the crates put back into the bottlers system. Eliot, who was 20m tall has a counterpart in Newton, Johannesburg named Oupa which is 16.5 m high and made from half the amount of crates.
