Fairly dancing to the beat, a drummer pounds fast rhythms on his drums. Shining cymbals seem to vibrate in this delightful sculpture. Armando Ramírez transforms recycled automobile parts into a rustic work of art. His body is shaped from a spark plug, his arms from thick wires. The drum set is shaped from discarded pieces off a die machine.
Please note it is the artist's intention not to give his sculptures a fine polished finish, therefore smudges and scratches may be present.
You can find our upcycled auto parts statuette 'Rustic Drummer' by Armando Ramirez in categories such as Eco-Friendly Sculpture and Metal Sculpture. Enjoy exploring these sections for other Novica treasures.
