Hyderabadi artist creates sculptures out of scrap metal

Hyderabad: Old iron cupboard, rusted or damaged wheel discs, old cycle chains are the best raw materials for metal sculptures, says metal artist Saaduddin Syed alias Ironic. For the past five years, the artist has been using scrap metal to make magnificent metal sculptures.

A mechanical engineer by profession, Syed learnt to weld by himself and slowly progressed towards making metal sculptures. He works in between a heap of scrap metals that he has collected through the years. There are wheel discs, spanners, some spare parts of bikes, old cycle chains, a few metal sheets, and old spoons.
