Scraps in a Scrap
The sculpture is a found object piece focusing on deconstruction of existing materials, done through combining plastic bits and reclaimed items and hacking them together into two junkyard robots.
Both are made out of broken and abandoned items repurposed into the dual forms. Each built out of broken toys and discarded plastic pieces reclaimed from a secondhand store, reinvented the unrelated parts into a pair of almagamated forms of the two creatures.
I see it as a representation of the natural flow of time, and how regardless of the damage life may cause, you have the opportunity to make something new of yourself and innovate, or you can simply rust away and be lost to the world around you. As an individual, I take pride in choosing the former.
