Tabletop
Tabletop sculptues are a variety of vertically layered geometric shapes forming a cohesive whole. The whole is a theme often reflected in the title of the piece. All of the pieces start out as a 4' X 8' piece of 20-guage sheet metal which is sheered down in many steps to form the various shapes. The shapes are welded together and assembled to create the sculpture.

About cubearts.ca
Gary Wener, Creative Lead
The Story
In 2023, after a fulfilling career in commercial real estate, I created cubearts.ca. At that time, I headed back to school to pursue a fascination and curiosity in metalwork. First George Brown College to learn the basics of welding and hone my skills in MIG, TIG and Stick welding. After that, I enrolled in a professional program at the Institute of Technical Trades to pursue certification in welding and further enhance my skills.
Inspred by architecture, urban form and geometry, I have currently created over 50 pieces of original tabletop and wall art pieces reflecting the structure, geometry, and rhythm of the built environment. Baked into all of this, is a real intention of making my pieces fun, cheeky and be able to surprise.
I certainly get a kick out of creating this stuff. I start off with digging into my mental archive of neat architecture, geometric patterns and in general the world around. Sometimes a piece may start off with a specific scheme and then end up as a totally different finished product.
Since the medium is sheet steel, attention to form, materials, interplay, contrast, patterns and structure is a significant part of the design process.
Through sketching, design development, and hands-on fabrication in the studio, the resulting works blend sculptural form with architectural influence, creating pieces that feel "refined industrial" with an empahsis on visual surpise. Some of the pieces move, adding to the surprise of exploring this art.
The sculptures are intended to bring a sense of strength, precision, and visual calm to contemporary interiors — whether displayed as a focal point on a tabletop or integrated into a larger wall composition.
How Its Made
Fabriccation
Each piece is fabricated using a MIG welding process and technique. Due to the thin gauge of steel used in the process (20-guarge cold-rolled sheet steel), the MIG welder is set at a very low voltage as are the wire feed settings. This allows for clean welds and the prevention of blowing holes in the material.
The process might be referred to as micro-welding where each component of each sculpture is welded together as a compilation of several or many geometric components to form the whole. Additional medium is included in some works such as tile, screens or steel rods.
Finish
There are two type of finish, Polished and Raw. Polished is where the weld line is ground off and polished down to the surface. Raw is where the weld is left untouched and can be seen in the finished product. More detail of each process can be found in the Finish description section.
Components
Components are comprised of a variety of shapes and sizes derived from geometric forms. Each sculpture is typically a compilation of different forms either in a pattern or a them coalescing into one piece of work.
Assembly
The component shapes and assemblies are arranged and welded together. The artwork comes completely assembled and ready to display. Each piece comes with a small plynth to exhibit the work. The plinth can be detached from the main work and replaced or the whole works can be displayed as on including the plinth.
Finish and Care
Finishes
Threre are two types of surface finish available.
Raw Industrial: Each element of the sculpture is presented in its natural, unrefined state, preserving the raw character of the material. Surfaces remain intentionally untouched—free from polishing or heavy finishing—allowing the inherent textures, markings, and tonal variations of the steel to remain visible.
The result is a gritty, honest aesthetic that celebrates the making process. Each piece receives only a light buff and a protective rust-inhibiting coat, ensuring durability while maintaining its authentic industrial character.
Polished Industrial: Each element is carefully refined to achieve a smooth, brushed surface that enhances the natural beauty of the steel. Through controlled polishing and buffing, the material develops a more uniform texture while still retaining subtle character and depth. Slight imperfections either from polishing or from the original weld may be seen. These are natural and make up the character of the piece.
The result is a clean, contemporary aesthetic—refined yet grounded in its industrial origins. A protective finish is applied to preserve the surface and ensure long-lasting durability.

Example of Polished Industrial FInish
Care
To ennsure longevity and integrity of each piece, a protective layer of rust inhibitor is applied at the conclusion of the creation of each piece. The treatment allows for the natural and polished finishes to shine throught while at the same time protecting the metal from rust.
