Jeremy Mayer’s Typewriter Sculptures

Jeremy Mayer‘s website is to navigate and the annoyances of automatic browser resize found there, none of it diminishes the cool, beautiful aesthetic of his work. Mayer makes people and animals purely out of old typewriters, and wonderfully, in his bio directly and openly states that he does not associate his work with steampunk in any way. Nice. Another thing I find particularly interesting about Mayer's work is that none of his sculptures are welded, soldered or glued: they're all put together via cold assembly. Which is incredible to consider in regard to foresight, design, planning and fabrication when you poke through his galleries. He exhibits regularly at the very exciting looking Device Gallery (browser resize warning, but worth it) in La Jolla, California. Road trip, anyone? (Thanks, William!)
