Mexico's Armando Ramirez enjoys the fine art of recycling as he transforms a variety of discarded metal as well as auto and bicycle parts into a sturdy forklift sculpture. Ramirez crafts the sculpture with steel sheets for the machine's main body and roof, while ball bearings and bicycle chains become the wheels. A car's field separator becomes the seat, and an assortment of nails and tubes become essential components of this spectacular sculpture.
Ramírez prefers not to give his sculptures a fine polished finish, therefore smudges and scratches may be present.

This was a gift for my husband, and he and our little boy had a good time trying to name all the car parts that comprise this precious little sculpture. Very whimsical!
