Armando Ramirez

Mexico recycled metal sculptures

I began to craft figures from scraps and discarded mechanical parts - mostly from cars and bicycles, soldering the pieces together and giving them shape as I imagined they should look. My sculptures are rustic in nature, designed to recycle discarded objects by converting them into art. View Collection

Mexico hand-blown recycled glass tableware and decor

I work in blown glass. Originally, I planned to craft hand-blown bottles for our excellent mezcal. But I decided to focus on blown glass art, using recycled glass and creating job opportunities for others. In addition, we rely on a renewable energy source. The cost of the gas to power our kilns had gotten so high I was afraid I'd have to close the workshop. But we developed a way to recycle cooking oil, collected from local restaurants, to fire the kilns. View Collection

Bali and Java

Peduli Bali translates into English as 'Care for Bali.' It is a social-environmental enterprise focusing on recycling and managing waste in a responsible way. The material used to make our upcycled glass products come from discarded wine, beer, water, and other glass bottles originating from the tourism industry, most from our hotel and restaurant customers.

Central America hand-carved wood art

I like to work with the roots of the coffee tree. This is a good wood because it's something people usually throw away, and they never take the time to see beyond this and understand that each root has the potential to become something unique and wonderful. View Collection
