Artist Diet Wiegman creates sculptures that might puzzle you if you only looked at the sculptures themselves. Strange constructions of trash and random objects, when illuminated by a light, cast perfect and immediately recognizable shadows, like Michael Jackson on tiptoe, Michelangelo’s David, or the Venus de Milo. 

“In no way limited to shadows, the the artists career which spans nearly 50 years (most of what you see above was created in the 1980s) has also involved ceramics, paint, and photography… You can see 38 light sculptures on his blog and read a bit more over on Alafoto.”
