I am so inspired by amazingly prolific artist Jack Pierson's word sculptures. Created from found objects, dismantled signs, and vintage neon letters, these pieces of long-forgotten dreams take on new life via repurposed art.
The next time you see an old but once brilliant marquee, or broken letters from a sign whose glamour is now decayed, close your eyes and imagine Pierson's artistic process of recreating them into beautifully evocative words and phrases. Instant inspiration.
P.S. Tomorrow... GIVEAWAY!

Great word sculptures. Definitely inspiring! I love how they're upcycled. It's always great to re-use. =)
