Details

Shifting into gear, a cement mixer rumbles to life as Armando Ramírez recycles castoff auto parts and discarded bits of metal. Sheet metal becomes the sturdy bumper and wire mesh, the grille. Screws are transformed into lights while auto bearings become wheels. Wire, tubes and die-cut scraps all ingeniously fulfill distinct roles.

Ramírez does not give his sculptures a fine polished finish, therefore smudges and scratches may be present.

“Wonderful!”

This is the fourth piece I have purchased from Mr Ramirez. (The other three were cats.) They are all fantastic! He captures the essence of a person, occupation or thing with just a few pieces of recycled metal. I don know how he does it. This motorbike is a gift for a person who once rode a full-sized one, but is now too old to continue. I know he will love it and it will give him happy memories.
