Even the most stylish room looks unfinished when the walls are empty. Metal wall sculpture was popular in the 1960s and 70s but has been making a real comeback recently. A huge variety of styles, shapes and sizes featuring all sorts of subject matter are available for purchase from many local and online stores. These sculptures transform empty walls from drab to extraordinary in no time.
Many of the artists producing these pieces use the best quality metals that are rust proof and durable. Aluminum, steel, copper and bronze are some of the metals used to enhance walls both inside and outside. These metals all have different qualities, colors and weight. Copper, for example, develops a lovely patina when exposed to the elements.
Some metals used may be fairly heavy and mounting them has to be done correctly so that they are stable and look their best. The right hardware needs to be used for mounting and for heavier pieces this is usually comes in the form of brackets. Other ways are also used to hang sculptures and for some lighter pieces hooks may be used.
Subject matter is drawn from many sources. Beauty is brought into the home with images of nature like trees, flowers, birds and insects. Sea creatures like fishes, dolphins, whales and turtles swim across walls adding whimsy and fun. Musical instruments stir musicians to pick up their instruments, and words touch hearts. Coffee cups with steam curling out of them make a coffee nook warm and inviting.
When choosing a piece it is vital for the dimensions and style of the space is taken into consideration. A large contemporary image flowing over several large panels may take up most of a wall. A piece like this needs a large space to work properly and may look out of place in a home. It may be best suited to the foyer of an office block or a large conference room. The scale of an artwork chosen for a small home will obviously need to be smaller.
The taste of a person always comes into play when choosing art. Modern and funky, conservative, ultra modern and elegant tastes are all catered for in stores. A beautifully sculpted bowl of flowers adds elegance to any space. Sea creatures like fish, turtles and dolphins are appreciated by those who live in beach houses. Some of the abstract, ultra modern pieces today are very inspiring to those who live in contemporary styled homes and want to introduce a wow factor.
The price of pieces varies a great deal with some being much more expensive than others due to the size and materials used. Spending money on an item like this offers the opportunity of completely transforming a space so it is often worthwhile to spend a bit more for something really special. All the other elements of the room can be inspired by one piece.

A well-chosen piece will not only animate the room but transmit the personality of the owner to all who see it.
