I guess it was only a matter of time before someone found a use for telephone cords now that the cordless phone has made them almost obsolete. Know someone who’s feeling sheepish this morning? Send them this picture.
You can find more pictures here, but I couldn’t find information about the artist. Hope you are chuckling this gray Friday morning.
[Update 6/26/08: Richard Cooper was kind enough to track down the artist's name and send it along. The sculptures were made by Jean-Luc Cornec. Thanks Richard!]

Those are awesome. I want one.
Those are a riot! I just love them. What a great recycled art project. We still have one of those phones (with push buttons, not rotary dialing) that gets plugged in when the power goes out for an extended period and the cordless phones go dead.
Thanks for the giggle, Susan.

That has to be one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen. Where the heck does one get so many same colored telephone cords? Holy moly.
You want ONE? I want a whole herd! LOL. Is this on exhibit somewhere?
WHERE CAN I SEE THE TELEPHONE CORD SHEEP IN PERSON??
they can be seen @ the Museum of Communication in Frankfurt (Germany)
