'Rustic Sport Motorbike'
Mexican artist Armando Ramirez builds a sleek motorbike from a wide assortment of recycled metal pieces. The tires are bearings from a car's electric system while the motorbike's gas tank once used to be a rocker arm from a car's ignition. The engine is a cogwheel from a car's electric system and a regular pulley is now the motorbike's seat. Metal sheets and thick wires complete the admirable design of this motorbike. Please note it is the artist's intention not to give his sculptures a fine polished finish, therefore smudges and scratches may be present.
