Amazing Wire Animal Sculptures that Look Like Scribbled Drawings!

You might need to look at these amazing works by artist David Oliveira a few times before you realize that in fact they’re not scribbled drawings, but works with wire meticulously used in an unconventional way by cutting and twisting the material into sculptures that could be mistaken for scribbled sketches.

Viewed from one angle, the pieces could be mistaken for a chaotic jumble, but a shift in perspective reveals the squinting eyes of lions, or the spread wings of a pelican. The Lisbon-based artist also creates vast interior installations of birds and thoughtful examinations of the human form. You can scroll through an archive of his work over on Facebook
