Sculptor and painter for the last 23 years Kevin Iris dedicated to art, aluminum wire and mother nature. By combining these three passions into one, he creates aluminum sculptures incredible beauty: trees of different species and very different sizes, ranging from small table bonsai, and ending with huge palm trees as tall as a medium-sized person. Stunning detail, down to the very last leaf, the smallest knot, makes you look at these works of art in a completely different way. It seems that these are real trees covered with silver paint. Real bonsai, or other decorative trees, lovingly grown by florists and planted in special trays. But as soon as you approach these masterpieces, the illusion is broken into small pieces. Which, however, makes the work of Kevin Iris even more wonderful and valuable.
At first, the author made sculptures out of aluminum wire just for fun, and gave the best ones to friends and relatives. His very first sculpture is still kept in the sculptor's father's house, and the one he made especially for his brother is a gift. Of course, the talented trees made of aluminum wire did not go unnoticed by true connoisseurs of modern art, and soon Kevin Iris began to receive orders for whole lots of decorative aluminum vegetation. By the way, it should be noted that the sculptor never repeats himself, and each of his trees is unique and inimitable of its kind.
True, only a very wealthy citizen can afford such a unique decorative element. The cost of such a tree is more than 1.5 thousand dollars, and sometimes it exceeds 7000 American money.

Smart "suits" for cell towers. Fake trees in the New Trees art project
Since today telephone communication is available in all corners of the globe, it is logical to assume that cell towers of mobile operators should be located almost everywhere.
