Drawing inspiration from the stories of Edgar Allan Poe, former playwright Will Ryman created a huge bird of nails, once and for all proving his creative skill in art. Sculpture created by the artist The bird with a massive rose clamped in its beak, it is impressive, over 12 feet in height, and consists of 1,500 nails of various lengths and sizes. This is an important point as scale plays a significant role in Will Riemann's latest sculpture series. Nails, metal bottle caps, work shoes and slippers, as well as brushes for industrial painting of walls and fences - the artist prefers to create his large-scale sculptures from a variety of household items. And the more interesting they are. So, a huge sculpture-installation Everyman consists of 250 pairs of bright blue work shoes and 30 thousand metal covers. This is how an almost overwhelming 90-foot citizen lies in the exhibition hall, surprising and delighting those who came to see the exposition.
The third installation is a 14-foot sculpture in the form of an abstract wall, lined with 200,000 construction brushes. The result is a very original design, one side of which is made of wooden handles, and the other - fluffy - from the bristles of these same brushes.
Artist and sculptor Will Ryman is already known for his giant structures. You can see his latest exhibition in New York, at the Paul Kasmin Gallery until the end of March this year.
