This intricate Tree of Life is made from recycled oil drums in Croix des Bouquets, Haiti by the artist Carlos Brutus. It is 24 inches in diameter. These pieces are representative of the spirituality of Haitian culture. this is a stunning piece of art, a great conversation starter. It is so beautiful and the detail in it is amazing to think it was once a oil drum. I love it so thought I would share it with you. Artisans
in the Croix des Bouquets area of Port-au-Prince, Haiti made this
intricate wall piece from recycled oil drums. The material was readily
available when Haiti provided reliable labor for many industrialized
nations but now with political unrest, few companies operate
manufacturing operations in Haiti so oil drums no longer are readily
available at the ports. But the skill of the artisans make it worth
importing the drums and what was once free material is now an added cost
of maintaining a livelihood for the artisans.
Handcut and hammered, this butterfly maintains the natural patina of the
oil drum and is approximately 20 by 15 inches in size. Do to the
handmade nature of the product the piece purchased may vary slightly
from the one pictured. Who would believe that a used oil drum could be
turned into something so
unique and beautiful. Display this proudly in your home because you are
helping the economy at the same time as you are enjoying this beautiful
piece of art.Thanks for looking and please take some time to browse my
