Paper Clips

Plus 2 Minus 5. Paper clips. 32h x 30w x 3d in.

Galvanized Steel and Vinyl.

Paper clips hold their shape when bent and twisted. This makes them ideal for wall sculptures. I love vinyl-covered paper clips because their colors are bright and bold.

Except for the last two, all these pieces hang directly on the wall. No frame or backing.
