Reclaimed Art


John Zubick Ltd. is a scrap dealer in the east end of London, Ontario. But in today's world Zubick is no longer a simple buyer of junk metal and stuff but a "reclaimer of Canada's resources." Don't laugh --- it's true. You would be absolutely amazed at the tons and tons of metal and other materials that are bought, sorted and sold by the Zubick yard. The amount of iron ore that stays in the ground thanks to Zubick is simply mind boggling.

But some metal has not had to leave the Zubick yard to be recycled. It the front of the business, towering high above the parking lot, some of the scrap has already been reborn --- as art.
