Armando Ram?rez's artistic vision permits him to see a different reality in discarded automotive parts and scrap metal. Transforming them into sculptures, he creates a wonderfully original nativity scene. Mary, Joseph and the angel are fashioned of metal plate and spark plugs. Another spark plug rests in a manger of connecting rods from a car motor lined with galvanized wire. Balance beams, washers and wire become cows that kneel before the Christ child. Melchior rides a horse, both figures made from a transmission chain, wire, metal sheets, a spring and a spark plug. Riding a camel, Balthazar and his mount use a balance beam, a rocker arm, spark plug, washers, cogs and wire. Tubes, a half sphere, spark plug, balance beam, metal bits left from a die cutter and wire become Caspar and his elephant. Ram?rez does not give his sculptures a fine polished finish, therefore smudges and scratches may be present. |
