Mexican artist Armando Ramirez recycles auto parts and scrap metal into an original chess set that is steeped in urban artistry. Ramirez collects the left over metal pieces off a die machine and shapes them into the pawns, horses, and parts of the kings, which also feature cogs from a car's electrical system. The queens are made from screws, cogs and bearings from a car's electrical system. The bishops are shaped from sparkplugs and the towers from cogwheels. The raised chess board is made from metal sheets in black and silver. Please note it is the artist's intention not to give his sculptures a fine polished finish, therefore smudges and scratches may be present. |
