Junkbot bug assemblage sculptures: The Litter bug


Mark Oliver's Litter Bug series is a collection of assemble-sculpture insects made from urban found objects and laser-cut metal and wood. They're extraordinarily beautiful — right up my street. They don't appear to be for sale, and more's the pity.

Arthropod sub-species of the Insecta class.
A creature whose instinctual and physical qualities have adapted so uniquely to the modern urban environment that it has rendered itself, by nature of camouflage, virtually invisible in it's normal habitat.

When seen in isolation 'Litter Bugs' appear to be composed of everyday 'found' objects.
