Extremely Imaginative Animal Sculptures Made From Recycled Materials

Japanese artist Natsumi Tomita uses scrape materials to create extremely imaginative, original and stunning animal sculptures that share an uncanny resemblance with their real-life counterparts. An old sieve or a broken umbrella will be perfectly good for these artworks.

Natsumi Tomita collected scrap materials from the streets and gave them a new life in the shape of animal sculptures. This unique and astounding work brings popularity to Natsumi. Speaking about her work Natsumi Tomita says, "Each of these things, which we usually use every day, once had a story, until they were thrown away. There are bicycles that were once ridden, broken dustpans, signboards from loan sharks, lost umbrellas. Every object had purpose and meaning before they were tossed away. Taking these things that I collect, I connect them and create new life from them."
