Art from Bottle Tops...
El Anatsui mostly uses aluminum seals from the tops of liquor bottles,
but also incorporates flattened or rolled bottle caps as well. All are
meticulously wired together.

1999, the artist happened upon a bag of bottle caps thrown in the bush.
He inquired, and found that the local distillery removed the metal caps
and seals from used
liquor bottles before refilling the containers. And so a steady source
ensued.
El Anatsui
With the help of numerous assistants, Anatsui flattens the seals and folds
them into strips that are then woven together with copper wire.

The bottle caps overlap and date from
the 30′s to the 70′s. Transparent washes of glaze are often used to further
define the image. Most of the portraits are 4′ x 5′ and are on sheet metal.
