A gritty champion born from the everyday, the Shopping Cart Gladiator radiates raw street-fighter energy. Hand-welded by Milwaukee artist Jason Blenkinsop, this recycled metal art piece is crafted entirely from reclaimed metal, mostly shopping cart steel, spoons, bicycle parts, a chrome stool, allthread, a 10/18 steel ball, grounding rod, elephant jack pieces, and mild steel rod and plate. At roughly 27 inches tall, 15 inches wide, and 12 inches deep, and weighing about 18 pounds, the stance is compact but fierce. The layered, mismatched components create a rugged, battle-ready armor that feels both playful and tough. Every cut, weld, and bend is done by hand - no molds, no castings, no two pieces alike. This handmade metal art is perfect for an industrial loft, studio, or collector's shelf. RuenWorx transforms reclaimed metal into one of a kind sculpture. Handmade in Milwaukee, WI.
