A braze welded sculpture of recycled bicycle parts. The legs and hips are rear derailleur plates, and the tail, head, and jaw of the mount is a brake lever and housing. The teeth are chain pins on a link plate.
The rider's torso is made of two rear derailleur mounting pegs, and a brake caliper forms its shoulders and arms. In its right manipulator is a spring clip from the underside of a saddle, and in its left is a staff of a handlebar stem bolt and expander nut, rear derailleur spring, and a wheel bearing race nut.
On its shoulders is an epaulette of a brake cable guide sleeve and a head of a tube clamp and alignment washer. It wears a jaunty hat of a headset locknut.
This necklace just was awarded First Place at the Visual Arts Exchange "Unfettered" show. It is made from a deconstructed vintage straight razo

This is the third in a series where I have taken the little octopus seen everywhere on Etsy and changed it in some major way. For this one I used my jeweler's saw to deconstruct the little guy and put a clockworks in him. I wanted it to look as though the clockworks were bursting out in a transformative way. He is about 3 1/2" wide by 2 1/2" deep and is on a 18" vintage copper finish chain with a hammered finish. A lobster safety clasp completes the necklace. I am a trained silversmith and this piece is riveted together for a lifetime of wear. One of a kind.

Tejp Remy. Dutch. Rags and Metal Strips.
The Rag Chair is made of thrown out rags, pieces of clothing and discarded metal strips. Remy creates each chair from found materials and also allows customers to send in their own discarded clothes to be included in the design.
While the Rag Chair is meant to be a comfortable piece of furniture, it also acts a a historical documentation. Because the Chair is made of previously worn clothing, the user can see the growth, change, and style reference over time- allowing the user to reflect on his or her past.
I saw an after school movie about these when I was a kid but when I finally got there found out it's closed on Black Friday.

They say it's a very clear indicator of Desperate Photographer Syndrome when you stop and take a pic of noodles on the street.
But what the heck ... it was a beautiful afternoon and fine fresh air. Plus, one could wonder and speculate as to why a box of noodles happened to be laying there.

Found this while walking the other day. It was in the grass along a semi-major highway (271). First thought it was just a knife case, 'till i opened it up & found the crack pipe. Yep, left it there.

over the weekend i participated in the Zionsville Recycled Art Market. it was my very first professional art fair and i was nervous as all get out!...the theme was to use all recycled items, which was right up my alley since i work mostly with found objects...this show embodied everything i have been working for these last 2 years and i was excited but anxious about putting my art out there in the professional world, but in the end my display turned out better than i could have imagined!! this video was taken from my view point as potential customers milled over my art, i hid my camera behind a picture frame and let the day unfold around me, and as i sat there in my booth taking in the sights and sounds of the market all i could think about was how none of this would have been possible without the unconditional love and support of those few closest to me...i couldn't have done it without them...becuz sooner or later love comes inside you, gets behind you, and takes you under it's wing...
Sterling silver pin/pendant with river rock, shell, and grey tile grout . About 2" long. This was a special order, but I make similar ones in this color range.$95.
I don't even want to think about what it says about me that I couldn't resist the opportunity to photograph this obscene object on the sidewalk.
Doors, newly built, but meant to look like "found" objects. These have chickenwire which is very nicely finished inside using thin and durable stops.
