Handcrafted Haitian Folk Art, Tree of Life with Bird Vintage Metal Art 10"x10.5"

Description: It's Cactus Metal Art HaitiOne of Kind Haiti Metal Wall SculptureHandcrafted Haitian Folk Art, Tree of Life with Bird, Vintage Metal Art 10"x10.5"These wonderful sculptures are handmade from 55 gallon oil drums in Haiti (see pictures). These steel drums are previously used, recycled, cleaned, and repurposed as canvas for our metal art. The artist remove the residue from the discarded drums, cut off the tops and bottoms, sand and pound them flat. The artist then takes over creating the art you see now using only a hammer and a chisel. The steel drums vary from brown to grey to black. As such, colors will vary on each, unique piece. Thank you for supporting our artists. Each purchase makes a huge difference in the quality of their lives. As always, all of our products are Fair Trade Certified. Artist- Roberto Saint Preux “I am happy to tell you where I am from and where I want to go,” begins Roberto Saint Preux. “I was born in Croix-des-Bouquets, the first of 7 children to my mother and father. We were not too rich or too poor, that is to say, we got by on what we had. But when I was ten, my father died. Nothing in life was as before. My mother was a seamstress, but there was no longer money to go to school, so we had to stop. That’s when I began the iron cut. Later, when I was 20, my mother died. Now my brothers and sisters are my responsibility.” Roberto continues, saying, “I began with Winston Cajuste and Nicolson Mathieu. They paid me money from their hands. I fed my brothers and sisters with it and it encouraged me to work much more. I look to nature – the trees and animals – and I create new designs. I want to be one of the greatest artists of the present. This is my job and I love it with all my heart.”
