Tobbe Malm’s Bolt Sculptures

These unusually emotive sculptures were created by Oslo-based blacksmith and photographer Tobbe Malm. Malm found the bolts in an old farm in Sweden. They had been lying there for a long time and if left alone would have rusted away. Being a blacksmith, Malm couldn't let them happen. So he brought the bolts home, forged them and hammered them into the figures we see here.
The collection of sculptures is titled “Bolt Poetry”.
