Insects and Old Wristwatches Make a Beautiful Couple

Mike Libby is an artist that creates works of art using insects and antique watch parts. This all started one day when he found a dead beetle. He got to thinking about how the beetle looked like a mechanical device, so he found an old wristwatch and set out to combine the two. He dissected the beetle and fit it with watch parts, soon creating a sculpture.

He continues to explore and experiment with his works of art. As for where he gets the insects, they usually come from dealers that have high quality specimens from all over the world. He charges anywhere from $250 for a bumblebee to $1000 for a grasshopper. Now if only he can get these robotic-like insects to come alive again. 1.

Broken CDs Transformed Into Iridescent Animal Sculptures

But rather than letting them lie there in their boxes, unloved and gathering dust, why not put them to good use by smashing them up and turning them into attractive animal sculptures? Artist Sean Avery has done exactly that and created a series of sculptures—from bears to peregrine falcons and even the Loch Ness monster—using the reflective splinters of what was once, possibly, a cherished music collection. It’s not the first time we’ve seen artworks created from dead (well, dead-ish) media. Previously enterprising artists have repurposed floppy disks and cassette tapes to create portraits and iconic album covers.

It’s good to know we can find new uses for all these hunks of once beloved plastic.
