Dengan menggunakan ribuan sekrup, Andrew Myres, seorang seniman 31 tahun dari Orange County, California, berhasil membuat karya yang sangat luar biasa. Ide ini berawal disaat Andrew bekerja di sebuah gereja beberapa tahun lalu.
“I was doing bronze reliefs depicting the life of Saint Catherine and thought how cool would it be to create something entirely out of screws. I’d always wanted to work with screws, I got the idea and that was it. Six months later I completed my first piece.”- Andrew
Karya yang dibuat dengan cara mengebor sekrup ke kayu ini rata-rata berukuran 1.2m (4ft). Walaupun Andrew telah menjual lima hasil karyanya seharga £5,500. Andrew tetap beranggapan bahwa karyanya merupakan karya yang tidak dapat diukur dengan imbalan materi.
“Household screws are cheap if you need to hang a few pictures but when you need to buy tens of thousands of them the price soon adds up. This kind of art is unique enough that I have to keep going with it, but it costs so much to create each piece it’s not as financially rewarding as you may think. They are more a labour of love.”- Andrew
