Junk artist Leo Sewell creates his
‘rubbish’ artwork from junk he collects from refuse dumps round his
native Philadelphia. This piece is of a female torso. Using any
discarded plastic, metal and wood, Leo selects his raw materials for
their color, shape and durability.
Molding them using nuts, bolts
and screws, Leo’s colorful sculptures, like this one called
Stegosaurus, range from the size of an average house cat
to a huge 40 foot installation, like Torch. Scouring the city for any
discarded junk he can use, Leo pieces consist of a number of disused
elements, some of which relate to the subject.
