Emma Hardy. Heather Jansch - Sculptor - Driftwood - Bronze. “I Dreamed of Becoming an International Equestrian Artist” Driftwood and oak sculptures by Heather Jansch.
Notes about the artist (from bio): From the beginning my twin passions were drawing and horses. My hero was Leonardo da Vinci. I dreamed of becoming an international equestrian artist living in wooded foothills with clear flowing water at my doorstep and horses grazing all around.I hated the confines of school and was a disruptive student except during blissful art classes. I took A level art two years early and failed all my O levels except English language but miraculously that got me to Walthamstow College to study visual art.

The dark celebration of Gehard Demetz. You have stolen my silence, 2006, © Gehard Demetz wood, 167,5x55x38 cm Courtesy Galleria Rubin, Milano Photo by Egon Dejori Gehard Demetz is a mystery artist, the only thing that we know about him is that he was born in 1972, Italy, and that he currently lives in the mountains of Selva Gardena.
Maybe this is the only thing that matters when you set an eye on his absolutely marvelous wooden sculptures, since you forget everything you may have in your mind. Why lie, this is not wood, this is the material of the dreams. And dreams are the perfect place for dark surrealism to rise. What are those lost children looking for?

Are you one of those people who has an old typewriter lying around that you can’t get rid of because you feel sorry for it? Well, maybe you should consider building a sculpture out of it. It seems that people are making anything out of everything these days, and now it’s the typewriter’s turn to be transformed into something it originally was not. As these folks demonstrate, typewriters can be used to make everything from torsos to busts to deers to bugs. Who could have known that an archaic item like a typewriter could be used to create something so creative and interesting. Now you know, so next time you’re throwing out some old objects, think twice. Like this: Like Loading...
