2 Years And 20,000 Welded Steel Pieces Later, I’ve Completed My Project Which Symbolizes The Threat Of Climate Change

Finally, two years later, I finished the “blue planet” art installation. Generally, I’m fond of making animal sculptures, but this time I added woman sculpture as well. I hammered and welded more than 20,000 metal pieces. In this installation, I create dynamic figures and give attention to the environmental destruction, how human beings destroy the world, so I placed a human hand at the bottom of the arranged piece to signify it is the root cause. As for those beasts, they represent a chaotic force, the power of destruction. A lurking vulture waits nearby, hoping to eat the other animals after they die. The woman holds her hand on a blue planet as if to save everything; she symbolizes hope and grace that’s needed to save us from this peril. I hope you’ll appreciate my long and hard work. You can find more of my projects and artworks on the links below, as well as some featured articles on Bored Panda like this one or this.

Very excellent craftmanship! But have also noticed that Beauty has amazing T & A, but no head. I guess that's why she's in this situation? lol. But really great work all around.

of course, without the link to climate change it's just a hunk of metal. WONDER WHAT THIS THING'S CARBON FOOTPRINT IS. focus

Perhaps he used recycled materials. Maybe he chooses to bike to work instead of driving. Maybe he sells his works and donates to a worthy cause. It has much less of one than someone who drives 90 min to work and back every day. It's a lion type creature a woman type creature a vulture a penguin a soccer ball I think and he said a hand. So that's what they are with out the link. Please just enjoy the talent
