Artist Creates Incredible Sculptures With Recycled CDs

CD’s aren’t used very much anymore and you may even have some still lying around the house.  Well, Sean Avery, a South Africa-born, Australia-based artist turns them into dazzling animal sculptures. He glues the CD shards to wire mesh frames and shapes them into different animals.

“My sculptures are all constructed with recycled materials — old CDs, computer hard drives etc, so I classify my work as “sustainable art,”” says the artist. “They’re a lot of fun to make, but they take an extremely long time to finish, so I don’t do a lot of them.” Check out some of our favorites below.
