Steel Drawings

How great are these?! Frank Plant, a Barcelona based American sculptor, creates simple line drawings in steel bar to be hung in interiors and exteriors. His creations are amazing and feed my love for outlines and shapes. And that TEXT! I can't understand what it says, but I see the word "bacon" in there...so I'm hooked. Check out Plant's site and flickr page for more incredible pieces.

    The first three are awesome, but that text is just sublime...especially with the bacon! Unless it's about Kevin Bacon...but that would still be kinda cool.

    the text is FABULOUS. and you had me cracking up re. the bacon. i completely agree - any kind of wall art that can incorporate the word "bacon" is good by me. i want to know what it says! i speak spanish but its kind of hard to read...can only get a gist
