Deep inside of us is a playful child who sees himself as a super hero believing it can change and save the world.
Children are the driving forces of life. We are not always aware of this because we have lost faith, hope and stability. Perhaps the only solution is to put on the costume of our favorite heroes to make a change.
From needle to truck, weld by weld, armor by armor, orange, gray, black, green, seven warriors, seven guards...
Watch the VideoEcology awareness is essential if we want to save the planet from ourselves. Recycling, as well as the primary form of consciousness, is available to everyone.
Recycling is an inspiration and a way of expression for many artists. Conceptually, the essential idea of recycling is transformation. Loss of personality is the hallmark of modern man, and therefore the loss of awareness of his surroundings. In waste, we can see the overall state of a country, as well as our attitude towards comfort, consumerism and social values. The concept of this form of expression is the idea that revives waste.
Through a creative approach, the waste is transformed into objects with usage value. With the creation, the artist transforms himself (through long and hard work) as well as the work itself (from waste materials to sculpture). The transformation of waste is going to transform the spirit. Through daily contact with a huge amount of various wastes, the artist examines habits of man and consumer awareness. Due to the increasing desire for comfort, we are exhausting natural resources and polluting our environment.
This type of artistic expression should inspire us to participate in the preservation of nature. Everyone can transform themselves and the world around them in their own way.
Do not harass nature, transformers are watching you.
