Beauty. That's
not a word that usually jumps to mind when faced with
piles of twisted tin, copper, brass, aluminum, steel and
iron.
But maybe it should. And maybe it might!
Because under Zubick's initiative,our east London scrapyard
has opened its gates to Fanshawe College art students.
And the result is a win-win partnership!
