The story
Found, cleaned, sorted, welded, wired.

Every element was found — scrap yards, second-hand stores, dumpsters — then cleaned, stripped, sorted and rebuilt. Found aluminum is TIG-welded and sanded seamless; nothing is cast. The electronics are salvaged from consumer devices, repaired and rewired so the piece does something when you touch it.

Materials

Everything in this piece had a previous life. Nemo’s own inventory, in his words.

Hammer heads, wood, film winder, saw handle, brass wheel, steel, juicer stand.
