Comments from the artist:

Here is the story — Recently our TV satellite dish was replaced. The repairman declined to take the old one, saying it belonged to us and could not legally be taken by the company (what a silly excuse of a policy). This means a lot of satellite dishes end up in landfills! With some welding skills, this can be made into hangeable art as there are lots of rough areas with holes, etc. I worked most of this week painting this satellite dish (there is lots of detail), which I have named Sputnika. It was a labor of love, and I am happy that something positive happened from some trash. In fact, I might create more of these as I have already had a couple of others donated. I would like this on top of my house instead of the unsightly grey replacement that is there.
