A circle of time is inexorably rotating as if it was a well-stained clock mechanism. We all, no matter what we do, no matter what we create, we love, we dream or perform our role in an endless time performance whose directors and actors are we ourselves, are the part of this mechanism…
I immersed myself in the new type of unique art some years ago. It overpowered me as soon as I got acquainted with it. That is a very strange type of sculpture art full of unexpected solutions and inventions and it fits one word “Steampunk.“ I use the most diverse recycled materials for work starting from wares, antiquarians and ending with rubbish and scrap metal that is useless. It is a pleasure for me that I can help to transform an item that was thrown and is useless giving it the opportunity to exist in a new shape, in a new form as if I continued its existence by upcycling in an already artistic expression.
I present my beautiful sculptures and advertise them mostly on the Internet. Steampunk style lovers from Lithuania, Netherlands, Germany, the USA, and Australia have acquired some of my works. I want to share my cool sculptures with you and I hope that it will help me to find myself.

A mole
Once upon a time, a mole lived and he had his own mole hole (a house). It was his portable property that could stand anywhere and no land tax had to be paid for this because it was a mole, spectacled and armed, with exclusive length nails which helped him to dig the longest tunnel with very little effort.
Of course, he didn‘t know anything about the secret exit. A caterpillar was running out through it as soon as he started feeling danger. It always happened but as soon as it gets to know about it, that will end or maybe they‘ll become friends…
That‘s the story that was born in my head while I was turning over the corpse of vacuum cleaner in my hands.
Sperm whale bathyscaphe
This piece of art was created quite accidentally. I was assembling the sculpture at my studio and while looking for a proper part, I saw an old sewing machine corpse cover dropped a long time ago.
I’ve found another identical cover, mixed up with each other in my mind and I had already imagined the result of the future work.
The idea of combining the submarine and the sea resident sperm whale was in my mind because they looked somehow similar to me. I had to use my imagination to make this attractive bathyscape and sperm whale hybrid.
Turbo ostrich
As soon as I noticed an ostrich I understood that it can be a good object to fulfill my ideas. That’s a bird symbolizing speed, power, and gracefulness.
The main detail which the creative process began with was the bend part of the saxophone. Its graceful bending matched with the neck of an ostrich.
A chameleon among flowers
I‘ve noticed that a lot of people like my chameleons. I‘ve already created four of them. They‘re interesting and weird living beings that charm with their color and strange shape of the body.
I always find compositions of different textures and colours. Each of them is lovely for me even though that one among the blossoms I like most.
Diving Champion
The emergence of this sculpture was initiated by the old scissors which were received from the aunt to chop the fins. Their curved shape fated these scissors to become hawthorn. Later everything self-assured.
Again everything turned into the feeling as if I‘m creating the animation movie character. That‘s the way it goes by itself, as I‘m trying to represent each animal with unusual attributes and shapes. Then they become interesting, even funny, but it‘s exactly my wish and my purpose – to cause curiosity in people and reward a smile. I think that a good dose of humor hasn‘t hurt anyone until now.
Some time ago I had created a walrus but it was much smaller. It completely surpassed my expectations. That‘s a real diving champion.

Gorgeous !! You have great imagination, attention to detail and an eye for the impossible! So lovely!
(sorry that pinky finger hitting the enter key too early.) I would really love to see these up close and be able to hold them and really look at all the details.

Thank you for your evaluation...

I'm glad you like it. Thank you!

You do fantastic work. So beautiful and whimsical. They put a smile on my face right away when I saw them. My favorites are the walrus and the chameleon. Do you sell your art or just make them for yourself? Where do you find the pieces of "junk" that you use?
I'm glad you like it. Some of my works are for sale. You can find them here: http://artistartas.com/shop/
Load More Replies...These are really great. For anyone who likes Steampunk - you should watch an older ('95) French film called The City of Lost Children. It's weird but it's got some good Steampunk inspiration. Beautiful artwork. Thanks for sharing.
Wow!!! These are amazing. They do look like animated characters--beautiful and imaginative. Wow
Would be foolish to use new material to steam punk sculptures. My lining is that any 3 dimensional art has to be done from trash, earth dont have sources to waste.
I want to give a second chance to the unnecessary things...
