Cannon. This Cannon steampunk sculpture was assembled from objects I found in a scrap yard. This time, I headed for the section containing brass and bronze scrap. I managed to find several objects that caught my attention and suggested the theme for this work. I already had all the necessary elements, so the only thing left was to bring them together in the right way.
Military subjects are not among my favourite themes. As I have mentioned before, ideas for my work often come unexpectedly when I discover objects with interesting shapes and materials. In this case, I chose bronze and brass mainly because of their colour. I particularly like their natural patina, especially the green tones and the variety of shades that develop over time.
The patina gives the sculpture a special charm, while its unusual details invite you to look more closely and wonder where the individual objects originally came from.
This Cannon steampunk sculpture is my first work with a military theme, but probably not my last.
