hindu carving

With this sculpture, Mexican artisan Armando Ramirez gives a whole new meaning to the phrase "iron horse." Rearing on its hind wheel, a half-horse, half-motorcycle hybrid kicks its front legs. Ramirez crafts this sculpture by hand from upcycled metal auto parts, including spark plugs, springs, cogs, and nuts.

Horsepower surges into life with this extraordinary sculpture by Mexico's Armando Ramirez. His vision begins with a varied collection of auto parts and metal pieces he then transforms into a motorized horse sculpture. The head and face are crafted with bearings, screws, nuts and die-cut scraps, wire twists shape the torso and mane. The hind legs are replaced by a bus bearing and an automotive clutch disc.

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