found object
A chandelier of sorts… an old beach-bound lobster trap hung with a dazzling assortment of collected trash and found objects, strung by fishing wire and hung by retired climbing ropes.
Works beautifully hanging over a dining table or kitchen island, in hallway, or on the high ceiling above the base of stairs.
Approximately 29” W x 49” L x 18” D
The Belle of the Ball, the Star of the Show!
A massive stainless steel produce sorter, collected from a scrap yard, is dotted with a plethora of collected trash and found objects (such as bottle caps, dog balls, broken yo-yos, doll stroller wheels, and other circular curiosities), and complemented with sideways hairdos on either side (bubble wands, wristbands, lollipop sticks), and a fantastical beard to match (retired climbing ropes, surf leashes, toy shovels).
A rather heavy son of a gun! Best hung from above (ceiling, beam, archway) on a sturdy structure.
Approximately 60” W x 75” L
Ascension is a minimal yet organizationally satisfying piece in tonal greens built off a large strip of shipwrecked boat wood with additional collected objects such as a surf fin, plastic planters, piping, and computer hard drive. Visually it evokes various ocean-related themes and imagery such as the horizon at sea, nautical flags, marine specimen display, and Santa Barbara’s infamous old platforms.
Approximately 55” W x 31” L x 10” D
An assortment of retired climbing ropes and collected fishing ropes dance and mingle atop a spectacular piece of Santa Barbara driftwood. Functions as a large wall hanging or substantial piece of art; can be wall-mounted or hung from ceiling.
Approximately 51” W x 36” L x 16” D
A satisfyingly organized collection of utterly random beach finds, saved from polluting our oceans! Works well as wall hanging; can be hung from above or wall mounted.
Approximately 48” W x 46” L
This large-scale, composition-driven piece is composed entirely of found objects and collected waste, predominantly from Santa Barbara beaches. The large metal circle is suspended from five feet of re-bar, and contains elements such as metal, plastic, driftwood, ship wreck, and fishing traps. Each piece is hung or attached using either strands of collected strings, retired climbing rope, or metal chain.
Can be hung from the ceiling or with horizontal wall mount hooks.
Approximately 40” W x 58” L.
