The guy, Michael Salter is a geek who loves styrofoam (or polystyrene foam) sculpture arts so much. He’s made many robots out of the styrofoams. And the most amazing is one of the robots is a giant robot that stands at 22-feet tall.
The maker of these robots makes use of those discarded packing materials that can easily be found at some common disposal grounds of some factories or warehouses. He has also built a wooden skeletal system to form the “bones” of these robots to give them a firm support.
The biggest robot is definitely a super impressive one. Look at it how it’s surrounded by many of those pint-sized Styrobots.
But of course, these robots can be easily destroyed by throwing a few of your karate chops or kicks.
These robots have been shown above the Robots: Evolution of a Cultural Icon at the San Jose Museum of Art, which runs through October 19, 2008.
