Tyler Vendituoli is part of Exposed 2011. He lives in Burlington, Vermont<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

This piece was inspired by the trend in doing things locally and the nostalgia for our industrial past that comes with it. The gear, a once common and necessary part of many people\u2019s day to day lives, is all but foreign to most of us now. There is something in the gear\u2019s teeth, something in the raw functionality of a gear, the symmetry and offset keyway that is fascinating and enthralling. What purpose did it once serve? How many rotations had it made before being retired?
\n<\/em><\/p>\n

The single intriguing form is then multiplied and recreated in a material that would never be used for a functioning gear. That singular form now becomes a metaphor for industry in general – the gear as a building block. Working from the ground up, each progressive layer shows the growth and path industry takes in establishing itself. The missing pieces and branching arms show the trials and errors along the way. Ever working its way upward, industry comes to a halt in its pinnacle, a top gear. Today we are at that pinnacle, where we can build off of the past, learn from it and add to it with refreshing twists. We can recreate it, make it our own, and choose to move it upward, outward and in any direction we decide. <\/em><\/p>\n

Tyler Vendituoli is a sculptor and metalworker extraordinaire currently based in Burlington, Vermont.\u00a0 He specializes in industrial style furniture, lighting and sculpture with a flair for repurposing discarded vintage items.<\/p>\n
