Joe Rush (born 1960) influenced by the film Mad Max and Judge Dredd comics, was the co-originator of the travelling multi media art group Eat my face, an underground art collective who specialised in building large scale installations out of waste material. Throughout the eighties he built techno-industrial sculptures at parties and festivals, and then travelled across both Western and Eastern Europe to continue the work. From making a "car henge" at Glastonbury (stone circle made out of cars), he progressed to using armoured personnel carriers and fighter planes in Germany after the fall of the Berlin Wall. After leaving Britain for many years, Rush returned to the UK where he and his crew became involved with robotics and animation, as well as organising Mutoid Waste Company projects around the world. He has had other art displayed around the country, like "X-Ray Ted Mosquito" as part of Liverpool Discovers 2011.He is not to be confused with the British washboard player and percussionist of the same name, who has played with Good Earth, Mungo Jerry, and the King Earl Boogie Band.
