British-born sculptor Tony Cragg uses color families and a carefully curated collection of flotsam and jetsam in his large-scale installations. Born in Liverpool, Cragg has an amazing collection of pieces made from found materials from household trash to construction refuse. We love the impressionistic charm of his pieces- gorgeous and graphic from far away, intricate and detailed from up close.

Jill, check out the Australian artist Rosalie Gascoigne. She is now deceased but her brilliant assemblages are strongly enviromental in their foundations as well. Not just just clever.
I saw the fourth picture at the High Museum in Atlanta. It’s truly gorgeous.
I saw a picture it is totally amazing great skill, keep up the good work
The Tony Cragg sculptures you show are all from the early 1980s. The last piece, the ones with vertical arrangements of plastic circles according to color is not a Tony Cragg.
