Iron statuette, 'Rustic Drumbeat'
Seated on stage, a drummer plays a lively rhythm punctuated by the clash of cymbals. Edmundo Cisneros depicts the musician in a sculpture that utilizes castoffs. He recycles computer motors, wires and washers, adding screws and brake bearings, thus giving them all a new life. As each piece is individually crafted, the size, pieces and their placement may vary slightly.
