The recycled car part mask, OGROST, is made from gas tanks, heat shields and torque converter parts. As with all his masks, the artist use the response method which means he has no idea what the mask will be when he starts. In this case the artist combined the eyes to manipulated heat shield parts and the rest became clear as he worked on it. The finish is sanded layers of paint. Eventually this mask seemed like a character out of the movie, Spirited Away by Miyazaki.

Though I trained in Ceramics, I had exposure to sculpture while in art school and after many years as a ceramicist, I moved into sculpture exploring mediums until I discovered car parts, welding and shovels. It's been downhill ever since. During my car part exploration, I was also a transportation activist. I discovered car parts in Maine in 2005, moved to Watertown, NY in 2009, to Kingston, Ontario in 2011 and Fort Erie Ontario in 2020. My art career has consisted of solo shows, grants for community based art and schools and an art activity printing t-shirts with car parts and tires that I presented at festivals, art centres and schools. I currently have some gallery representation, but am mostly going the on-line sales route.
