Lin Evola-Smidt

     Lin Evola-Smidt is an American artist who is well known for making metal sculptures of angels . The unique part of her is that she collects weapons such as guns and nuclear gun casings to make metal sculptures of angels . She uses the technique of melting the weapons to build the sculptures .

     Besides , Lin Evola-Smidt is the founder of Peace Angel Project and also the founder of  Art of Peace Charitable Trust . According to the video ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bPfcclu7eGQ  ) , young people and government had given up their weapons to the Peace Angel Project in order to build Peace Angel , a symbol that represents 'Peace' . In my opinion , she must have played a crucial role in promoting peace through her artwork , she is definitely a great artist who has gained trusts from people due to her devotion to Peace Angels .
