SUBMISSION: royal bengal by libby hodges

Royal Bengal, made from over 3,500 recycled bottle caps by Libby Hodges. "The Royal Bengal Tiger is an endangered species. The threat of poaching remains a pressing issue. The loss of habitat as well as human population is another concern to this graceful yet formidable creature. In a world where we so easily discard items that end up a landfill, I find great satisfaction in creating pieces made from recycled materials. These pieces are made from bottle caps, aluminum cans, vintage tin signs and wood. The caps come from many different places and each has it's own story, coming together to create a work of art."
