His name is Derek Kinzett . He is sculptor. An innovative sculptor. His innovation is not found in the forms he gives that they could be characterised as classical and realistic. His innovation is the material he uses, the known to everybody wire!

Till now, I suppose that the most of us knew this material as cages or fenches’ construction material. But Kinzett’s spirit liberated wire of being a servant of slavery and borders by giving it the chance to be an elegant, aesthetic element of art and expression.

Charmed!…

If you take a look around your house, you may find many materials of any kind that you no longer use, because they are old enough or no functional anymore. A broken television, keys of your former house, jeans that don’t fit you (mmm, you like food, don’t you?), pens out of ink or even cosmetics. The first thought that you may have is just to get rid of them. And usually the solution is the garbage bin! Simple and fast!

But, don’t you think that it is wiser to contribute less in producing huge and highly polluting landfills? How you can do that? By re-using these materials, of course! In new forms, in new ways.

And if you are out of smart or creative ideas, we found for you a Recycling Database made by World Environmental Organization, in which you can find ways to re-use things that you consider useless. Check it out http://www.world.org/weo/recycle and have fun!!!
