The art of handmade newest metal sculpture passed down from generation to generation provides sustainable living for more than 100 families in a small Haitian village. The job started with a recycled 55 gallon steel drum. The steel drum is prepared for sculpture, the top is removed, it is stuffed with dried banana leaves and straw, and finally it is ignited to burn off all residue and paint. Once the barrels have cooled, they are pounded into slabs and ready for sculpture. The artist draws the shape he wants on the metal, then begins his work with a hammer and chisel. 31447.
