What do you usually do with your electronic items which are damaged or can not be used anymore? You probably dispose them off or store them for some time in the hope to get them repaired and then throw away. At the most, what one thinks of doing is to extract some usable parts from the gadget and discard the rest. Whatever you may be doing with the damaged electronics, I am sure you do not think of creating something totally new out of them.

What on Earth could be created with damaged gadgets! Is that what is going on in your mind? Tal Avitzur has the answer. 'Robot Sculptures' are what he creates. The cool robots he makes out of the scrap metal objects are so finely designed that one would easily assume them to be a part of the props used in some sci-fi movie.

Tal comes from a science oriented family background with all the siblings being engineers or doctors. But he has blended science and art together through his work. There are small details to be taken care of in his creations, which are a pleasure to watch. Read on the interview with artist and find out how he landed up into the world of robotics.

We generally have a tendency of throwing all scrap metal away, it's nothing but trash taking up extra space for us but for Vik Muniz trash is all art!

Vik is a talented Brazilian artist who uses everything from discarded automobile parts to all metallic trash to create huge collages, which he then photographs and shares the digital prints on his website.Viz is the same artist who's work-in-process was shown in the an Academy Award nominated documentary Wasteland. He currently lives and works in New York.

You can see Vik's scrap metal art on display as digital prints at the Armory Show in New York through the Rena Bransten Gallery which would be starting on 7th March, 2013.
