Artist makes discarded cellphones the medium By Joel Brown Globe Correspondent / April 10, 2008
Forget oils and pastels, marble and cast iron. Artist Rob Pettit works in Sanyo, Nokia, and Motorola.
Pettit, 26, has spent the last few months obsessed with making art out of discarded cellphones. Working six or seven days a week, the Allston resident has turned thousands of obsolete phones into meticulously arranged sculptures that will go on display this evening in an exhibition at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts.
