"Beauty of Junk" - Amazing Sculptures Made from Scrap Metal


One man's junk is another man's art" , this old saying is made true by Edouard Martinet an extraordinary artist form Le Mans, France. He transforms everyday objects found in flea-markets and car boot sales into works of art. He crafts astoundingly detailed and life-like sculptures of fish, birds and insects from pieces of discarded junk -- but without any soldering.
Each masterpiece is carefully assembled after having drafted several detailed sketches. This process requires a sufficient amount of time to get from the idea to the completion. In this post I am presenting some of the sculptures made by him, hope you all will enjoy this post.
