]]> Austrian artist Thomas Medicus recently presented an intriguing sculpture dedicated to four endangered animals native to the Austrian region of Tyrol. The thought-provoking glass piece, titled Human Animal Binary, creates an illusion of animal images disintegrating and reassembling depending on the point of view.

Using 144 strips of glass confined in a cube, Medicus reproduced images of lynx, bee, kingfisher, and river trout. All these animals are affected by the lack of care for the environment and ongoing climate change. They are in danger of losing their habitat and getting closer to extinction if humans don’t change their approach.

Human Animal Binary is currently displayed in Innsbruck, an Austrian mountain city that also serves as the capital of Tyrol. It will remain there for the next 12 months. The artist is also preparing a film about the project that will share more details about the process of creating the sculpture and the goal it aims to achieve.

“Human/Animal Binary was designed to last. One day the installation will stand in a different social context: as a memorial that has come true or as a relic of a time that has been overcome,” the artist explains.

If you can’t make it to Innsbruck, see what makes this  “Human Animal Binary” special in the video below.

]]> Sculptor Jason Lyons makes the ultimate case for upcycling. Using discarded objects (anything from an old typewriter to broomsticks), he creates unique sculptures that take after animals and insects.

According to Lyons, through his unique creative process, he developed a talent to visually dissect, reinterpret and then repurpose the materials found in his sculptures. Led by the materials themselves, it is the organic nature of many of the man-made objects he reclaims that serve as the initial inspiration for his work.

“I look for these shapes buried within objects,” Lyons explained somewhat poetically in a piece he published on Artsy Shark. “I then utilize these shapes and reinterpret them into the anatomical structures that make up the organic sculptures I create.”

“Creations from man-made objects discarded as refuse and reinterpreted to form objects found in nature are the inspirations for my art,” he adds on his website. “The simple spoon forms the body of a rainbow trout; a discarded children’s toy becomes the foundation for a moose; horseshoes transform into armadillos.”

His creations will inspire you to look for artistic potential in the mundane objects around you.
