Paul Villinski
NY based artist Paul Villinski creates mesmerising art installations and pieces fromfound objects and trash, and his Beer Can Butterflies are among his most striking work.In his words: "Who leaves these crushed beer cans forlorn evidence scattered in the streets of the city? I take these "dead soldiers"-every one of them once raised to someone's lips-and breathe new life into them, changing them into images that suggest the possibility of change itself. A kind of conceptual unity developsbetween materials, process and imagety: my practice in the studio mimics the act of transformation that butterflies symbolize everywhere, in all cultures."
