Please be sure to visit his website. A brief bio from his website follows;
Leo Sewell grew up near a dump. He has played with junk now for forty years, and has developed his own assemblage technique. His works are collected by corporations, museums, and individuals throughout the world. Leo continues to cull the refuse of Philadelphia out of which he fashions pieces of all sizes, from a lifesize housecat to a 24 foot stegosaurus.
His sculptures are composed of recognizable objects of plastic, metal, and wood. These objects are chosen for their color, shape, texture, durability, and patina; then are assembled using nails, bolts, and screws. The outdoor sculptures are constructed of stainless steel, brass, or aluminum found objects which are welded together.
Leo Sewell does work by commission. He can also use objects from the patron's past, for a more personal assemblage.
He is available at (215) 387-8207.
