There is an wonderful show underway at the Hudson River
Museum in Yonkers, New York. Federico Uribe’s, Fantasy
River is a whimsical interpretation of a three-dimensional riverscape. Both
flora and fauna are made from everyday objects such as pencils, shoelaces, gloves, coins and
screws. Uribe gives back to Nature what was taken from her as he
creates trees from books and animals from leather shoes and other objects.
If you’re in Yonkers, I
recommend you stop by for a visit and if Yonkers happens to be a bit out of the
way, here is a link to the museum's exhibit page containing two videos featuring the artist and his work, www.hrm.org/exhibits.html.
A ram created from electrical wire, a hippo from computer keys, and in the background, a leopard made of sneakers and a zebra made out of pencils.
Lizard, tiger and tree made of books.
Cougar made from bullet shells.
A field of shovels and I'm not sure about the sun...
