Wire Is Not The Easiest Medium To Work With,

but looking at this snake,

it seems that the skill needed is second nature to,

 a young Japanese art graduate who seems able to twist copper and brass wire into pretty much anything he sets his mind to, 

 from sculptures that look like drawn manga, to slithering snakes and giant insects, @tdaiki1216, whose real name is Tsutamoto Dawiki, first made headlines in Japan two years ago, 

 when his incredibly detailed wire sculptures imitating manga drawings went viral on Twitter, fixed into square wooden blocks and placed against a white background, his artworks looked exactly like manga comics, even though they were actually twisted pieces of wire,

at the beginning of 2018, @tdaiki1216 was in the news once again, this time for a massive snake sculpture he made as a graduation project,

 talking with online magazine Irorio about how he started working with metallic wire, @tdaiki1216 said that it happened completely by accident, He was a member of a tennis club during junior high school, and one day he found a piece of wire on the tennis court,

  He started playing with it, and he hasn’t stopped playing with wire since, check out more of @tdaiki1216’s amazing wire artworks on Instagram, all of this from a scrap of wire on a tennis court, amazing!
