According to Robert M. Pirsig, the study of the art of motorcycle maintenance is really a miniature study of the art of rationality itself. Working on a motorcycle, working well, caring, is to become part of a process, to achieve an inner peace of mind. The motorcycle is primarily a mental phenomenon.
Made of vintage timepieces, motorcycles created by talented craftsman are truly works of art. All I have learned about the artist (from his deviant art page) that he is a male living in Toronto Ontario, Canada. However, originally he is from the Ukraine. Inspired by different steampunk artists, Dmitry Khristenko makes his incredible miniatures of motorcycles and automobiles using watch parts. In fact, such kind of art is the same as jewelry art. According to Dmitry Khristenko, he has been sculpting these miniature motorcycles since 2010. As a result, since that time various mass media featured his works. In particular, Ultimate Motorcycling Magazine and Motorcycle Mojo Magazine.
