It all starts with this: scrap wrenches. Absolute junk.
This is John Piccoli, a 70-year-old, wheelchair-bound man who suffered from polio as a child. None of that really matters, though, because, with the help of a crane and incredible artistic ability, John is able to make stunning art.
Then he does this:
Piccoli is from Victoria, Australia, where he is called "The Spanner Man."
The word "spanner" in British and Australian is "monkey wrench," so that makes him "The Wrench Man."
Piccoli started by making small garden sculptures from wrenches he collected himself.
But now he makes pieces that appear in galleries all around Australia, from Sydney to Melbourne.
His work is so popular now that he collects and purchases wrenches.
In the end, nothing stops John from doing what he loves. Despite being confined to a wheelchair, he makes stunning sculptures.
