Artist Turns Out-Of-Use Silverware Into Beautiful Sculpture Creations
There’s an aviary in every silverware drawer. Robins, kingfishers, owls, jays, blackbirds… It just takes eyes like those of South Carolina-based craftsman Matt Wilson to help distill them from imagination. When most people visit junkyard to see the garage, artist Matt Wilson (based out of South Carolina) transforms these scrap into several artistic pieces. He sees scrap metal as a unique thing.
Matt Wilson says that his work shows the environment he lives in. He worked as a resident artist at Detyens Shipyard and gave life to the discarded materials. He said, "The upcycled work I create is a testimony to the belief of conserving and appreciating our resources, so that the environment in which we live will continue to be an environment in which we desire to live." Here are a few sculptures that are made from recycled silverware by Matt Wilson. Check them out below. Upcycling Artist Matt Wilson Turns Discarded Scrap Metal Into Magnificent Bird Sculptures.
