Featured Bison Box of the Month
Bison Box 001
Bison Box #001: Create Your Own Sculpture
Inside Bison Box #001, you'll find a variety of scrap metal, as shown in the photos. Each box contains the same materials, giving every artist the same starting point and the freedom to create something entirely their own.
The Bison Box is more than a challenge. It's an opportunity to create something new, powerful, and bold. We encourage you to use only the materials provided and see what you can build. The boxes may be the same, but no two sculptures will be alike.
