ART Pin by Harriete Estel Berman

Description

ART Pin by Harriete Estel Berman using recycled tin cans. These multiple layers of tins are carefully constructed to create a new series of pins. The pin stem on the back is securely attached though artfully concealed. Back signed by Harriete Estel Berman.

Come back to my shop on Etsy to see the continuing series.

I have been working with recycled tin cans since 1988 long before working with recycled materials was popular. In fact, at the time, it was kind of embarrassing to be work with materials diverted from their destiny as trash.

Over the many years of working with tin cans, I have developed my own techniques and innovations for assembling each and every one of a kind piece. My work is on the cover of many books including The Fine Art of the Tin Can by Bobby Hansen. Look at the resume page on my web site for a list of the more than 25 books that include my work.
