Details

Spinning tunes with melodic wonder, a DJ captures the imagination of Mexico's Armando Ramirez. He transforms a sparkplug and thick wires into the DJ's body, sculpting it into a vivid pose. Speaker protectors preserve their function, continuing to pose as speakers. All other pieces from the turntable are crafted with recycled metal sheets to achieve a life-like depiction of a DJ hard at work.

“Imaginative”

This was a gift for my husband, a now retired DJ of many years. The gift arrived neatly wrapped but when he opened it, his eyes lit up and he exclaimed This is just like my old set-up! I knew he loved it! It now sits where he can see it everyday. Thank you for making his day that much more special!

“Wonderful!”

This is the fourth piece I have purchased from Mr Ramirez. (The other three were cats.) They are all fantastic! He captures the essence of a person, occupation or thing with just a few pieces of recycled metal. I don know how he does it. This motorbike is a gift for a person who once rode a full-sized one, but is now too old to continue. I know he will love it and it will give him happy memories.
