Leonardo Drew

Leonardo Drew creates sculptures from natural materials, such as wood. He produces his artwork through the processes of oxidation, burning, and decay. When he’s creating his masterpieces, Drew is transforming these natural materials into critique social injustices and the cyclical nature of existence. His sculpture “Existed,” is built from rows of stacked cotton and wooden boxes, stuffed with rags, covered with scavenged objects, and covered with rust. This masterpiece is a representation of the debris of everyday life. I like this sculpture because in order to make something like this it takes dedication, time, and a great memory.
