Tony Cragg is a British-born sculptor who was known in his early career for creating colourful collages from ordinary construction materials and household objects that had been thrown away. He found these objects on the streets and in rubbish dumps in West London.
In this artwork Tony Cragg has arranged the picture in a special way to make two shapes. One shape is the artist himself. Can you see what the other shape is? (You may have to tilt your head to the left to see properly). Can you recognise some of the materials Tony has used for his collage?
