"Silver Streak" David Mach

2009 coat hangers

okay number one, wow those are all coathangers, and number two, that thing is made out of coat hangers! haha mach used i don't even know how many coat hangers to make this colossal sculpture. he piked my interest because of his choice of medium. i mean how many people can you name off the top of your head that paints? a ton. how many people can you name off the top of your head who strictly uses wire coat hangers? one now. haha. i thought this was interesting and thought he should be recognized.

"Rod's Trees" Dave Hind

2008 reclaimed aluminum

4’x5’

Hind is also pretty awesome. his aluminum works are so detailed that they almost look like a photograph. he only uses recycle aluminum for these works which is awesome. i can't get over how detailed he is. his works focus on the relationship between man and nature, which is what i'm focusing on as well, so i'm really referencing back to his artwork for some inspiration for more ideas with my pieces.
