He is an artist in Israel, his work is characterized by the reuse of materials. I am pro of the reuse and re invention of old objects and materials. In this case, the artist is creating jewelry made out of used bullets. Yes, it is very creative but the material he is using means more than a simple artifact in the day by day life. A bullet is a material that has a violent history behind it specially in that region where Palestinian and Israelis are constantly fighting and killing each other.
This an statement of what is happening in his day by day life and that I admire. I am not quite sure if I would have one of those. Freaks me out!
