Making Art out of Rubbish

Alex Banda goes from door to door collecting rubbish and screp metal infact people in his area have an easy way to get rid of these. Items, they just call him. He does this because he is a sculptor but he uses metal instead of stone or wood. He can design anything but his interest are in animals, he has been fascinating by wild animals since he was young, his dad was a game rancher, this gave him a chance to patrol with his father which made him have a chance to learn about them.
With the help of a welder from a neighbouring farm, he learned the art of shaping and welding screp metal.
People from all over the country come to admire and even purchase animals from his outdoor gallery. He has three employees who entire relie on him as their employer. This sculpting is a source of income to him and his family.
