“You know those things about yourself that you’re self conscious of? Those quirks that you’re trying to hide? Those are not your weaknesses, those are your strengths.” (Terry Border)

Maybe you know Terry Border, the everyday things american poet. “The Secret Life of Everyday Things” is the title of his recent photo book : 70 pictures of his excellent wacky, strange creations. I’s a kind of second and creative life of our everyday objects world. I used to play in this magic land only when i was a child. This artist let it  still live on. I’m not surprised to read in his facebook that “Le fabuleux destin d’Amélie Poulain” is one of his favourite films…
I asked Terry to tell me something about his art and about his life. These are his words: “When I have an idea about one that interests me, I add wire to show what I am thinking. A lot of the times, this means adding wire arms and legs, to create a character. I started working with wire probably a dozen years ago. I started adding objects in 2006.

If someone has a good paying job that they can give me, it would be welcome. I’m married, and have a 12 year old daughter. My wife and daughter give me good criticism about my work.” If you’re more curious I suggest you to follow his blog: “Bent Objects“, where he post photos of his creations, and not only…

Here only a little gallery
