Steel
Abstract steel sculpture by John Sanders.

“At first, I just used the flat plates of steel which I just cut with a torch—just the edge cutting. And a few years after that, I started adding blacksmithing. I have big forges here. Not only was I bending the steel—which is impossible to do when it's four or five inches thick unless you get it white hot—but I was also carving it directly.”
