When you think of sculpture you picture someone using their hands but this just involves pouring liquid into an anthill. This kind of art is the kind that doesn't take a lot of time but mostly takes patience. There are a few steps you must follow to end up with the finished results seen at the end of the video.

These sculptures are created by pouring molten aluminum down an anthill followed by a few processes. Once the aluminum is poured into the ant colony, you let it sit a while then scoop the extra dirt away. Then you start digging around the ant colony and pull out the left over piece of the molten aluminum that has cooled down. Then last but not least water hose the piece of work down and you will be amazed at the finished touches!

This kind of art isn't just used for homes but is also being displayed at the Museum of Science & Industry in Chicago!
