The scrap metal gallery by Sayaka Ganz finds new uses for discarded objects. Previously readers have seen this weird and interesting reuse of old products, but Sayaka has updated her series to include dolphins, lizards, cheetahs, horses, eagles and dragons.
This is a unique ecofriendly twist for garbage that Sayaka Ganz started because she grew up believing that all objects have spirits. This put her in a habit of not throwing out objects, and now she integrates these pieces into her sculptures to form animals that come alive.
Ganz is inspired by the idea that even when there are problems she can find a place where all of the pieces can exist together. Sayaka hopes that her projects can inspire others to reuse instead of waste.
