We love found artwork, and the way someone’s trash can become another’s treasure. In this case, London-based artist Leonardo Ulian used old tennis rackets, and combined them with reclaimed electronics to form fascinating sculptural mandalas.

Using solder to fuse pieces in elegant and often symmetrical ways, Ulian’s series also incorporates unexpected objects like pinecones, jewelry, and mirrors. The series is called Contrived Objects.

Created during the Covid lockdown, Ulian’s work is playful but also highly artistic and well made. We also can’t help but notice faces in all of the rackets.
