Yesterday's Future Today...

As a child I loved taking electrical things apart; old video recorders, telephones, typewriters, old computers, nothing escaped! Luckily there was an old army surplus yard nearby otherwise I wouldn’t have been popular with my Dad. The sculptures I ended up building out of the parts were nothing to write home about, but it has left me with a fascination of artwork made up of recycled parts.

Electro Art Works by Andy Hill pretty much ticks all the boxes for a steam punk fan such as myself. He builds beautiful whimsical robot sculptures from electronic parts, appliances, scrap metal and junk parts inspired by the tin robot toys of the 50's and 60's. His website features many images of his robot legion; many of them already reside in various locations around the world.
