I've always liked that style of sculpture. Here's one from Singapore:

Found it fairly easily with an interweb search.

His name is Jeffro Uitto and he's in Washington (state presumably) in the US.

Thanks Bob.

With work of that quality, I think it is really important that we always recognise and acknowledge the artist.

On reflection, there is a lot of work that should be better acknowledged - like a plaque on a couple of nearby monstrosities:

• Fred Nerk, "Architect", designed this pile of sh*t.

I really admire those artists who can take items of naturally occurring pieces of nature and arranging them in a way that does not alter each individual piece but gives new life to each piece within the overall artistic piece. Their creative imagination is incredible.

That reminded me of the old Honeywell ads. Made from resistors and circuit board parts.
