martin's introduction
Martin has been doing eco-sculpture for the past 15 years with reclaimed materials. His work is an expression of the sculptural process. Using recycled materials he changes the design in organic ways to suit the natural environment. Martin's work encompasses everything from kinetic moving sculpture to liveable eko-tecture, public eco-art installations and even industrial eco-design. Martin is an active member of the Pemberton Arts Council and a global art specialist willing to travel anywhere to satisfy his urge to be creative.
RECYCLE.
In the beginning we start with 4 basic elements wood, metal, fire and water. As humans we interact with these elements on a daily basis for our entire lives. Our connection to the material does not end once an item has outlived its use in our lives as it is still part of the environment in which we live. Martin's work as an eco-sculptor is to reclaim these materials and using a sense of play infuse them into an environment where people can share and explore their perceptions. The lens that we view the world with is reflected in our views of art, history and a sense of where we belong.
This water-cycle sculpture is a creation made from old well-loved bicycle parts. Its purpose is to cool down hot cyclists at the local Pemberton Slow Food Cycle 2010. Not only is the sculpture interactive but also eco-friendly and connects the cyclist to the history of bike technology. I invite you to explore and share in Martin's eco-sculpture experience and see where your mind takes you...Thank-you.

Here is how it works...
Metal sculptures designed for your home or business can be created to suit your taste and your budget.
Sculptures range in price depending on things such as location, shipping, size, quality and finish of material.
Larger sculptures weighing several tonnes may require transportation however sometimes it is possible to make the sculpture onsite.
Size of sculpture, materials, timeline, location and budget are all factors in determining the overall sculpture project that is just right for you. If you like one of the sculptures you see on the website they can be purchased.
