"A new exhibit at a landmark Vermont museum showcases the work of a renowned artist who calls New England Home.
"'Life is full of surprises,' furniture maker and lighting designer Johnny Swing said during a recent visit necn paid to his studio in southern Vermont.
"In his Windham County workspace, Swing transforms quarters, half dollars, and other coins into usable sculptures. He lines up coins in fabrication molds to work inside out and uses anywhere from 30-80,000 individual welds to fuse the coins together and join them seamlessly to a frame."
In a recent report, NECN highlighted the artistic work of Mr. Swing.
