Manuel Sarmiento

Desert Companion

$225.00

Rooted in the rugged stillness of the desert, Desert Companion is a striking recycled metal sculpture by Manuel Sarmiento. Featuring the silhouette of a grazing horse nestled among towering cacti, this compact piece brings the soul of the Southwest into sharp focus. The layered black cutouts create a dynamic yet minimalist profile, casting bold shadows that evolve with light and perspective.
Its elevated base — made from repurposed steel — adds an industrial edge that contrasts beautifully with the natural imagery. This balance between nature and structure is at the core of Sarmiento’s work, offering a reflection on beauty found in unexpected materials. Whether displayed solo or as part of a collection, Desert Companion stands as a quiet tribute to endurance, landscape, and transformation.
