On exhibit are astonishing 9ft/ 3mtr tall Predators / Alien sculptures which use junk metal for fantastic attention to detail figures.
They are entirely made from recycled scrap metal. The artists use car parts, motorcycle parts/chains, nuts and bolts, spark plugs, nails, screws and all different kinds of scrap metal.
The parts contain basically everything you would find on a scrap yard and everything that is economically recyclable.! They produce an impressive range of high-quality sculptures without losing the magic of recycled art. These Scrap Sculptures are very cool and unique!
