A David Bowie superfan has paid tribute to the late music icon by creating a magnificent 7ft-tall sculpture created by cutting up over 1,000 recycled DVDs.

Andrew Vickers, 56, was inspired to honour the legendary musician following Bowie's death from liver cancer at the age of 69 in 2016.

The artist from Sheffield, South Yorkshire, spent hours toiling away to build the sculpture, which he has aptly named "Starman" after Bowie's 1972 hit.

Inventive Andrew began by constructing a fibreglass model of a man in motion, then acquired hundreds of old DVDs to use as the exterior.
