Mechanical Development.

Many technological advances have happened throughout time, and would be nearly impossible to list in detail every one that has happened and the knock on effect of the invention and how these things constantly shape, re-create and influence us still now.

From the first steam locomotive, boiler, boats, canisters, almost anything that can contain, change, manipulate, or develop, in man made progression through the production of metals in factory production, taking away manual labour. But instead his artwork is very much relative to our own affinity with living with machines in an aesthetic harmony... Or he just makes a point on the human beings ability to grow, develop and produce.

After searching inventions and a long browsing on google I happened to come across Stephen Halleux, who works with a variety of media, but mainly metal, putty and plastic.
The handcraft of his work is really techy but it looks like something that would be great to have a go at.


The development/concept sketches are rather good too. Really easy to visualize what the end sculpture would be.


Heres some he made earlier.
