| Janecek is a Tool and Die Maker
and teaches manufacturing processes at a local technical college. His
sculptures are mostly inspired by nature, machinery and anatomy. Janecek
makes one piece at a time from materials that come from farm salvage yards.
He uses hot processes to cut, bend, form and join different types of steel
and cast iron. Some pieces are buffed with a wire wheel and protected with a
clear finish and others are left to rust.
Inspired by nature and spirituality, Ed Janecek's
sculptures are objects of art that provoke thought, inspire creation and
perhaps leave questions to be answered.
When ferrous materials have outlived their usefulness as agricultural
implements, structural members, and tools of industry, Ed gives them a new
life as objects of art.
