"The Re Thinker" Sculpture Aberdeen Scotland.
I visited Aberdeen's Hazelhead Park today, and stumbled across this magnificent sculpture, I checked its history through the internet and have included its story below for your perusal.
"The re-thinker"
"Re-thinker" by Lucas Dew 2014. Made from half a tonne of recycled steel, collected from recycling centres around Aberdeen.
The creation was inspired by Rodin's classic sculpture The Thinker, an iconic image that has been reproduced many times, but never using waste materials. The metal items, including pipes, bedsprings, spoons and a digger bucket, have been transformed into a work of art in a bid to change the way we think about rubbish.
The 6-foot high metal figure is on public display at Hazelhead Park Aberdeen.
