The next time you're in an auto part store, you'll be looking at auto parts and accessories in a new light, especially after seeing the works of Nemo Gould. This American artist and sculptor is known widely for his kinetic "found-object" sculptures, as well as two-dimensional works. Much of his work presents whimsical aluminum and wooden robotic and sci-fi creatures, and he regularly employs used auto parts, scavenging everything old and cast off, from engine parts and mounts, to brake pads and shoes, and even gasket sets and car mirrors.
Australian sculptor James Corbett discovered his talent for creating his amazing pieces of art while running an auto recycling business in Brisbane . He likes to incorporate old and interesting car parts into his sculptures. Nothing is bent into shape, and the original integrity of each car part is maintained. “The parts themselves are often interesting. Some are as much as eighty years old," says James.
