The Freya Jobbins Sculptures put old broken toys to use.
Created entirely out of old figurines, this sculpture collection is full of bizarre-looking busts along with a few famous faces such as Arnold Schwarzenegger. The different toy pieces are left intact and unpainted so you can easily identify the figurines they came from, including some Simpsons toys, Disney characters and more, giving you a hit of nostalgia. Some of the sculptures have a theme going such as one made out of animals and insects, or the Darth Vader sculpture that is made solely out of miniature Darth Vader toys giving it a very meta feel.
Imagine repurposing your plastic toys into works of art like the funky Freya Jobbins Sculptures.
