Bullfinch
Sean E. Avery, of Perth , Australia ,
is a graphic designer. He writes and illustrates kid’s books with funky,
imaginative characters. What I’d like to focus on, however, is his work as a
sculptor, which, as he says, “is all about re-purposing the discarded to make
something beautiful.”
He starts by bending a wire mesh material to form the frame. He cuts up used
and unwanted compact discs into various shapes and sizes; a pair of ordinary kitchen shears is
his weapon of choice. He hot-glues each shard in
patterns to replicate feathers or fur.
What a creative way to reuse and recycle!
