Talented West Australian Sculptor, Rod Laws, is a master at recycling old metal 
objects and transforming them into an art piece. He is well known for his use of
cutlery, either highly polished or blackened. He is inspired by the forms found 
in nature from the planets and stars to the tiniest of insects.

### Artist Statement

“_I am intrigued by natures myriad of forms, from planets and stars, to the tiniest
of insects. Creating metal sculptures that capture even the smallest amount of magic
within nature is my goal.”_ From my beginnings as a sheet metal worker I have self-
taught through playing creatively with metals. For me my art is representing what
I love and believe in, whilst containing elements of fun. The environment and its
human condition are areas I often ponder – yet rather than getting dark and morbid,
I like to get excited and creative.

The charcoal I use to heat and shape comes from the local forests after fires and
most of my materials are collected or recycled, this has been known to include our
kitchen drawers and the kids toy boxes. My works are dispersed around the world,
privately and publicly – hopefully sharing the joy I had in creating it.
