The gallery’s 14-foot Bumblebee-inspired statue, built entirely from recycled auto parts, was dismantled and delivered to its new owner. The massive yellow figure had stood outside Rare Earth Gallery’s Art Walk location on Carefree Highway since spring, where it quickly became a social media sensation and selfie stop.
In its place, the gallery unveiled an even larger spectacle: a 15-foot Optimus Prime-inspired metal art statue now standing outside Rare Earth Gallery’s main location at 6401 E. Cave Creek Road.
