Cactus Sculpture. So far, this is the most extraordinary idea I have successfully brought to life. An old teapot and some oblong aluminium parts were transformed into a beautiful blooming cactus. I had to use a lot of metal rivets to represent its spines.
My metal cactus also serves a functional purpose – it holds a tequila bottle inside. A special green fabric case was made to hold the bottle safely. I like the unexpected combination of a desert plant and a tequila bottle, which gives this Cactus sculpture a playful touch of humour.
It is always interesting to discover how ordinary objects can take on a completely different identity. This Cactus sculpture is a good example of how an unusual idea can become both an artwork and a functional object.
