From scrap to sculpture

The process

  1. 01

    Hunting through the scrap

    It all starts where others see junk: wires, bolts, cutlery, rusty spare parts. Every piece hides a shape waiting to be seen.

  2. 02

    Composing the figure

    The parts are tried, combined and rearranged until the metal begins to suggest muscle, mane, feathers or a face.

  3. 03

    Welding in the soul

    Welding locks in what imagination found. Cold, rough iron becomes a creature with a character of its own: art from discard.
