Since 1994, artist Thomas Deininger has been making sculptures from junk he finds on the beach. If you watch from distance, his 3D sculptures look more like drawings, paintings or ordinary sculptures, and not like trash. You can see toys, covers, packaging and other kind of junk transformed into art.

Deininger says that he is an “optimistic Nihilist making things to help me process the mayhem….maybe it’s just adding to the confusion” living and working in Bristol, Rhode Island. The Art graduate also makes two-dimensional paper collages from photographs he finds in newspapers, magazines, and pop culture materials such as Barbie dolls.

If you are interested in his work, you can check out his creations on his Instagram page called tdeininger. There he has collected over 103.4 thousand admirers. The artist also shares his masterpieces on his website.

American artist Thomas Deininger creates installations and assemblages of heterogeneous objects in the manner of Arcimboldo. The artist prepares bewildering optical illusions that must be seen from a little distance. Toys, corks, various pieces… his works are made up of a multitude of small recovered plastic objects.

At first glance, the workspace of this Rhode Island-based artist looks like a cluttered space of all these things that are expected to get rid of during yard sales, small plastic toys, household utensils, old lighters etc. The pile of objects, often in bright colors, looks intriguing. His art process consists of assembling them into families (by association of subject or color, matter or universe), gluing them, or mounting them on supporting platforms, which form famous canvases, animals or portraits.

Like the paintings of Arcimboldo in his time, the anamorphoses of the sixteenth century and the impressionist technique, his plastic installations (which began in 1994) are somewhere halfway between sculpture, painting and installation, and offer a quite fascinating setting. The abyss of modern man, congested, or perhaps well reassured, by the objects of consumption surrounding him.
