Nimrod Meesegs' craft involves working solely from wrought iron. The one-of-a-kind sculptures created using over a thousand individual pieces of metal, applying several ancient forging techniques, welding, power hammering, and plasma torch. These techniques enable the creation of unique textures, effects and shapes, rendering the sculptures unique in style and appearance. These methods permit a complete transformation of brutal base metal into something beautiful, gentle, light, curvaceous, and even soft. The evolution of artworks take place through a landscape of forms: from organic shapes to delicate or muscular animals and expressive faces. Sustained focus and passion are present in the creation of Messegs' hugely popular and gracefully sensual female torsos. To date, his unique sculptures are greatly sought after by leading international galleries.
