Raw, colored, white
painted, and clear
anodized aluminum sheets have become a popular medium for
creative projects. There is a reason why aluminum sheets are
available in sizes similar to that of plywood—however, the creative
applications with these versatile sheets expand far beyond that of
plywood.
Aluminum Art
Installations
Next time you are in an
art gallery, or see an outdoor work of metal art—take a look to see
if it is made fully or partially from raw or anodized aluminum. A few
large-scale aluminum artists and their artworks from around the world
include:
- Japanese artist and architect Sou Fujimoto’s “Many Small Cubes”
- Paul Villinski’s large scale bird installations using found aluminum cans
- Jan Hendrix of Mexico City, who creates aluminum sculptures such as “Algae”
- Sol LeWitt, whose most popular aluminum installation is “1 3 5 7 9 11”
- Matt Dehaemer’s spike-inspired “Catalyst”
- Rachel Thomas’ illuminating “Light Filter”
Aluminum Feature Wall
Adding a feature wall to
your home or office is an excellent way to personalize your space.
Most feature walls are painted in a standout color or pattern,
adorned with a textured wall covering, or have the design elements
built-in, such as decorative crown-molding detail. If you are
searching for something a bit different, consider using white painted
aluminum sheets, or colored or raw aluminum sheets. Simply apply to
your wall to give a sleek and modern look. Cut, layer, texturize or
emboss for more visual appeal.
Print Or Paint Clear
Anodized Aluminum Sheets
One of the fastest
growing trends in wall coverings are creative wall decals that cover
the majority of the wall. While the options are endless in these
wallpaper-like decals, also consider 3D printing your desired design
on aluminum sheets. One design can even be printed across multiple
sheets to create wall-to-wall art. Hand painting metal sheets is also
another way Toronto artists create large-scale wall art.

online selection of 4x8
