About this Item

Armando Ramírez's artistic vision permits him to see a different reality in discarded automotive parts and scrap metal. Transforming them into sculptures, he portrays a classical musician with his violin. A spark plug forms the body while wire and metal scraps complete the piece.

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

“cool metal spider”

I lived in Mexico for awhile and I remember the upcycled metal sculptures that were for sale there. This is a lifelike rendition of a tarantula. It is really cool, this one, and it is proudly displayed on my table.
