Steam Punk Crawlers

Steam punk! What is it? It's influenced from the industrial revolution, when everything was powered by steam. It's a genre of art mixed with modern ideas to create something almost mechanical. It's a style that resembles futuristic innovations envisioned by Victorians.


A bullet is probably the last thing you'd think of using to create art. Tom Hardwidge has used bullets to create steam punk insects here, each one with a different style. Each statue uses a bullet as part of the body. They're quite intricate and beautiful.
