Jean Tinguely (1925 – 1991)

The machine sculptures engage in a loud and multi-coloured conversation with the onlooker: Through his works, Jean Tinguely communicates and interacts with the spectator. The machine functions and becomes art. Tinguely’s artworks sparkle with wit, vitality, irony and poetry. Seen against a deeper background, though, they also reveal a feeling for tragicomedy, for the enigmatic and inscrutable.


From this piece of work I am going to have  a go in my work, working with found objects which at sometime had a purpose but now turning unused goods to create something new and eye catching to viewers. so as you may find in my work or maybe in my final piece I may use bottle tops which aren't used anymore to create a human figure. You will be find the process through making that later on, on my blog when I come to the decision whether or not to make it.
