Tuesdays are trash day in Emeryville, although trash is a relative term.

Usually Ill just walk down the street and open the Dumpsters, said artist Ann Weber.

She also frequents grocery and liquor stores and is always on the lookout for the right box or piece of cardboard.

Sometimes Im driving and Ill see a shiny green Patrn Tequila box, she said. Ill just screech over and get it.

Armed with a staple gun and a stack of cardboard she brought with her from Northern California, Weber is in residence through Dec. 13 at the Lux Art Institute, where shell be constructing a new group of her ingenious cardboard sculptures.
