Adding a fresh coat of paint, this sculpture by Peruvian artisan Miguel Mejia depicts an auto body painter. The artisan recycles auto parts, handcrafting the sculpture to achieve an impressive level of detail. Using screws, nuts, bolts, and more, he convincingly captures the painter's form, wearing a protective mask while holding an intricate spray gun.

There is nothing quite like this artwork. It is much heavier and more substantial than I expected.
