New World Design's Flying Pigs on Parade: A Golden Pig Folly Proposed For Chicago
/President-elect Donald J. Trump notoriously called comedian Rosie O’Donnell a “fat pig” in a long-running feud. He mocked Miss Universe Alicia Machado by dubbing her “Miss Piggy.”
Now, a Chicago architectural firm wants to celebrate Trump's love of pigs by blotting out the real estate developer -- now president of the United States and TIME magazine's person of the year - with a series of floating golden swine floating in front of his name.
New World Design‘s Flying Pigs on Parade: a Chicago River Folly (2016) proposes four pig-shaped golden balloons -- one for each year of the Trump presidency -- tethered to buoys in the Chicago River. The golden pigs will float in such a way that they obscure The Donald’s name, emblazoned on the structure in 20-foot-high lettering.
