automotive metal art

Like pre-Hispanic warriors, rustic figures do battle atop a pyramid. This wonderful creation is the work of Armando Ramírez. Queens are fashioned of screws and bearings, kings are cogwheels and metal scraps, while sparkplugs and other castoffs find a new life as sculpture. Combining art and function, Ramírez creates each piece from discarded automobile parts.

Crouching, a fierce panther goes hunting. Armando Ramírez crafts the image from an amazing assortment of recycled metal and automobile parts. Sheet metal scraps, timing chains, bearings, piston rods, cogwheels and wire all find a new life in this unique sculpture.

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