Sculpture from Melted Vinyl Records

Jonathan Hudson is an artist who specializes in recycled materials. “Girl Put Your Records On” is a female form sculpted from vinyl records. From his site:

Educated in the field of science I am constantly experimenting and exploring new approaches to my subject matter. My intentions are to create well-crafted works of art that visually speak to the viewer and evoke an emotional response. When possible I try to use recycled materials and repurpose them for something other than a landfill. As a Biologist it is disturbing to note the rate of devastation our species is inflicting on our planet. Recycled/Repurposed Art is at least one step in the right direction.

    Very nice. Prior to this, I had only seen vinyl records slumped over a terracotta plant pot to make bowls or vinyl plant pots.
