The artist Tom Sachs has made a career out of making the most of what he has available to him.<\/p>\n

His signature bricolage sculptures often come from found materials and jerry-rigged processes. So he\u2019s been well suited to the quarantine life of the coronavirus pandemic, spending time in the basement of his home in Queens, New York, making art with what he has on hand and telling others about how they can do the same.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn a weird way, I feel like I was born for this time,\u201d he said Saturday from the basement. \u201cBecause it\u2019s a time when bricolage is the natural state of things.\u201d<\/p>\n

Away from his famed Manhattan art studio and his team there, Sachs is in his element splitting time between being a husband and dad and tinkering in the basement.<\/p>\n
