Simi Dabah, a self-taught artist/welder, has been creating welded steel sculptures from industrial scrap for more than forty years. He is a prolific artist who believes that using scrap materials to create works of art is both friendly to the environment and inspirational to the viewer. His sculptures are appropriate for both indoor and outdoor installations, include a wide spectrum of nonrepresentational designs, and range from table-top size to more than 20 feet high. Most of the outdoor pieces are left in their natural state rusting to a warm patina. Others may be protected with a clear finish.
Simi donates his sculptures to public and non-profit organizations for permanent installation and to help in their fundraising efforts. 100% of the funds are kept by the non-profit organizations, and Simi claims no tax deductions for his donations.
This is our third hide around Simi's display...hopefully the third time is a charm. The belief that the third time something is attempted is more likely to succeed than the previous two attempts. It is also used as a good luck charm - spoken just before trying something for the third time.
