some unwanted junk through 23 quirky "robot recipes".
Each of the 23 robots is shown through the transformation of a
group of “found objects” into a finished sculpture with
accompanying instructions on inspiration, assemblage methods
and bonding techniques. The projects are disassembled to their
very core to reveal not just the easily identifiable elements
used in their creation, such as a tennis racket, thermos, or
bicycle frame, but also every screw, bolt, thread, rope or wire
used to assemble them. This is original collection will
inspire you to scout around your homes for spare everyday
objects and turn them into characterful assemblage art
sculptures.
