One artwork in the shape of a stag's head, made from recycled copper and flattened corrugated iron. The item could be used as a coat hook.
One turned wooden box shaped like a teardrop, made from rimu. Inset brass and pewter strips curve around the base in a Celtic knot shape. The box is in two parts.
Over the summer on The Weekend we've been talking to recyclers and upcyclers, people who like the Wombles, are making good use of the things that they find, things that the everyday folks leave behind. This is true of Christchurch builder, artist and furniture maker, Tim McGurk. He says he works with whatever junk and materials he can find. Tim crafted several items from the materials salvaged from an earthquake damaged Christchurch house, as part of the Whole House Reuse project. He also made the news when he made a Star Wars inspired X-wing sculpture/lamp out of salvaged rimu.
