Description

Industrial Buffalo Sculpture

This intriguing sculpture is a masterful creation constructed from found metal objects, ingeniously welded together to form the robust figure of a buffalo. The artist skillfully repurposed a variety of mechanical components, including saw blades, a cast iron decorative grate, chainsaw chain, screws, chains, gears, and an auger bit, which is creatively used to fabricate the buffalo's penis. These elements are seamlessly integrated, creating a skeletal, steampunk aesthetic. The mesquite base provides a natural counterpoint to the industrial materials, emphasizing the buffalo's connection to the land. The piece reflects both ruggedness and intricate craftsmanship, with intentional patina and aging on the metal components enhancing its unique character.
