michael coleman at inspired by wire
Inspired by Wire specialise in creating unique, contemporary wire tree sculptures. They produce a range of amazing collectible wire sculptures mounted on responsibly sourced seasoned wood, rock, stone, slate and ceramics. The major influence on each piece comes from observing ancient trees, their diverse shapes, age and structure. The trees are handmade from hundreds of individual strands of wire, twisted together and running from the roots to the leaves.
“Every tree is special and an inspiration”
Maker’s bio
Michael’s inspiration of trees as a natural art form arose from his desire to let the material used be the focus of the sculptures. Primarily using the stunning landscape and dramatic coastline of the South West, the trees are handmade from hundreds of individual strands of wire twisted together, running from roots to leaves and mounted on responsibly sourced seasoned wood, rock, stone, slate and ceramics.
Michael also undertakes commissions from private clients, this can be one of the most satisfying ways of acquiring a stunning piece of art from any tree design, style and base customised to suit your requirements. He has rapidly gained a reputation for creating work which exceeds clients’ expectations. He was delighted to produce trees for The Woodland Trust annual Tree of the Year Awards.
