Ziemlich beeindruckende und extrem spooky daherkommende Skulpturen entwirft die im australischen Sydney ansässige Künstlerin Freya Jobbins. Ihre figurativen Artworks entwirft die kreative Dame, inspiriert von der Kultur des Up-Cycling, nämlich komplett aus alten Kinder-Puppen. Sie selbst sagt über ihre Arbeit mit dem unkonventionellen Material: „I am interested in generating a range of responses to existing cultural objects, which have been placed out of context. The irony of my plastic works is that I take a material that was created to be touched, and I make it untouchable as an artwork.“ Einige Beispiele aus dem imposanten Schaffen von Jobbins, die Ihre Artworks bereits in England, Norwegen, Deutschland, Dubai, New York, San Francisco und Tel-Aviv ausstellte, lassen sich direkt hier unten bestaunen. Kuckt doch mal:

Freya Jobbins, is an Australian based sculptor and printmaker, who currently works from her home studio near Sydney. Majoring in Printmaking during her art studies, she is now predominantly a sculptor but continues to produce prints. She creates humanoid busts and portraits using a very non-traditional material, discarded children’s toys. An artistic exploration, of the relationship between consumerism and the culture of up-cycling and recycling.
