About this item: Armando Ramirez masterfully transmits the printer's deep concentration as he transforms auto parts and scrap metal into an expressive sculpture. The man's body is a recycled spark plug, his limbs are shaped from thick wires and his head is made from a round point discarded from a die machine. Ramirez uses a bicycle chain, a bearing, thick wires, nails and other discarded pieces to sculpt the legendary printing machine. Ramírez prefers not to give his sculptures a fine polished finish, therefore smudges and scratches may be present. - Each work is unique. Recycled parts will vary from piece to piece based on availability. - Features a rustic, rugged finish About our Artist: Born in a Mexican town famed for its traditional artistry, Armando Ramirez dreamed of creating something new. 'As a child I enjoyed inventing toys, and soon yearned to create a unique style of art. Environmentally enamored, I now transform recycled goods. I began to craft figures from scrap and discarded mechanical parts, mostly from cars and bicycles. Thanks to the creativity that God gave me, today I have an enjoyable and better way of life. '
