motorcycle decor

This unbelievably detailed motorcycle sculpture is the original creation of Mexico's Armando Ramirez. The artisan works with recycled auto parts and scrap metal to create his eco-friendly sculptures, such as the spark plugs, bearings, screws and nuts seen in this piece.

Armando Ramirez transforms a collection of metal pieces including thick wires and tube pipes to create this impressive motorbike. Other pieces that once made part of a car's electrical and ignition systems have a more specialized function in this sculpture. For example, bearings and coils are transformed into tires and hubcaps. The gas tank used to be an ignition rocker arm and the engine is built from tubes and a brush holder. Finally, the seat was taken from a clutch pedal.

Please note it is the artist's intention not to give his sculptures a fine polished finish, therefore smudges and scratches may be present.

This motorcycle of classic inspiration is built by Armando Ramirez from an intriguing collection of recycled metal pieces, some extracted from cars. The tires are bearings from a car's electrical system and the hubcaps are electric coils. The motorbike's fuel tank was once a rocker arm from an automotive ignition. The engine is shaped from a cogwheel as well as a timing chain.

Armando Ramírez sculpts a motorcycle with all the mystique of the open road. Transforming recycled bicycle and automobile parts into swift contours, he conjures a realistic, rustic bike. With bearings for wheels, a spark plug body, screws, wire and metal bits left from a die cutter, the bike crowns a wall rack with four hooks for keeping keys at hand.

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.

Wonderfully realistic, a semi truck comes to life as Armando Ramírez recycles castoff cycle parts and discarded bits of metal. Sheet metal becomes the sturdy bumper and production chains, the grille. A refrigerator motor provides the cab, while timing chains and a motorcycle traction piece become seats. Wire, screws and die-cut scraps all ingeniously fulfill distinct roles.
