Brain explains his work in his own words:
“I am intrigued by the challenge of creating an entirely unique piece from an eclectic collection of discarded objects. Giving these old, common items a new and extraordinary life as one sculpture is an artistically challenging yet gratifying process. This type of work is also designed to be highly interactive and prompt viewers to question the reality
of what they see. Audience reactions fuel my motivation.”
The artist about himself:
“I grew up in Portland, Oregon. My artistic spark was ignited at an early age, fueled by the organic beauty of the Northwest. I’ve been drawing, painting and sculpting for as long as I can remember, but in the last ten years I’ve focused on refining my work with exclusively recycled material. I am inspired by the challenge of creating unique, fun and inherently curious pieces through this medium. Work integrating recycled metals and discarded objects is designed to be interactive and pique the viewer’s intrigue of how an eclectic collection of things can become an entirely different something else.”
