haitian metalwork
The artist begins with a 55 gallon oil barrel which they
split open and flatten out as a large sheet of canvas.
He first sketches out the design with chalk then cuts
the steel using only a hammer and a nail. The round
sculptures are made from the lid or bottom of a 55
gallon barrel. Each sculpture is signed by the artist.
The sculptures are recycled, hand made and beautiful.
Beyond Borders is a proud member of the Fair Trade
Federation. These sculptures are great indoor or
out. For outdoor use the varnish will wear away over
time and the sculpture will begin to rust naturally or
you can maintain the original look by spraying it with a
clear enamel every couple of years.
