Vintage Sculpture is a husband and wife team whose art and way of life has always been deeply connected to the past and of rescuing discarded materials and giving them new life.
Lately, they have been working in more of a subdued pallet creating iconic images of Americana using our newest reclaimed material, hat-felt scraps salvaged by a friend in the process of making cowboy hats. The method of hand-cutting, snipping, bending and even dying the felt and then individually nailing each the skinny felt trimmings in a multitude of intricate shapes and sizes has resulted in amazing relief, depth, texture and detail.
