Creativity can be displayed in many ways. For one artist, it is in the
form of wire bending – and leaving his artwork on display for all
to see, or slipping it into a person’s bag for them to discover later.
Spenser Little has left one piece of artwork on display in San
Diego every day for the last ten years, most of it in inaccessible
locations, providing a problem for maintenance workers having
to remove it.
The artist began his ‘obsession’ while working at a monotonous
job in the biotech industry, and said: “Bending wire helped my
creative brain not go crazy. Instead of complaining, I would
bend my grievance into a wire joke.” The full story can be found
on page 12.
Allied Wire & Cable also deserves a mention for donating more
than $18,000 to four different charities with which an employee
has a special connection. The company, which donates a
percentage of sales to charitable organizations, handed over
checks to Pets for Vets, Marguerite’s Place, Shriners Hospital for
Children – Twin Cities, and the American Diabetes Association.
