Tyrrell Winston got famous for using lost basketballs as art. Now, he’s leaving home to find what’s next.

NEW YORK – In a 1,200-square-foot loft studio space on the border of Bushwick and Ridgewood, directly across the street from a scrapyard and with eight-foot windows that face One World Trade Center in Lower Manhattan, there are hundreds of basketballs. There are some loose tarps. There is a rusted car door, too.

They were retrieved from various parts of New York City by Tyrrell Winston. He may use them, at some point, to make art.

The Brooklyn-based multimedia artist is leaving the space in April because he is briefly moving to Detroit to prepare for his first-ever museum exhibition this summer at the Cranbrook Art Museum.
