The Beetle Sphere
Created by Ichwan Noor an artist from Jakarta, Indonesia. A graduate of the Indonesian Art Institute, Yogyakarta.
The sculpture is made from real parts from a 1953 VW beetle, along with aluminum and polyester molded in a sphere. Currently the beetle sphere is on display at the Mondecor Gallery in Jakarta, Indonesia.
Possibly inspired by the Bus Ball. Created by ZZ Tops' Billy Gibbons.
