- This view of a dove is often used to represent the Holy Spirit, particularly in Latin American art of the Colonial Period. However, throughout history, the dove has also been symbolically associated with Motherhood, Purity, Love, and Innocence.
- Each unique fair trade metal sculpture is hand- cut from recycled 55- gallon steel drums.
- To begin the process, both ends of the drum are removed and placed inside of the remaining cylinder, along with scrap paper and dried banana or sugar cane leaves.
- Next, the contents are set ablaze to burn off any paint or residue and strengthen the metal.
- When cooled, the drums are sliced down the side and flattened, effectively creating a steel canvas of approximately 3' x 6', upon which the design is drawn. Using a hammer, chisel and various other primitive tools, the desired image is cut out and decorative patterns are pounded into the metal. Finally, a weather-proof finish coating is applied, making these fascinating pieces of folk art perfect for displaying indoors or out.
