Located in Palm Springs, California, the Cadillactus art sculpture is drenched under the sunny area -- it is designed by Swiss artist Roger Reutimann. The Cadillactus is inspired by a vintage car, taking discarded elements of a 1959 Cadillac car and transforming it into a whimsical and thought-provoking design.

It encourages conversation around industrial waste and the strong power of nature itself. The Cadillactus stands tall and the discarded materials find unexpected changes to new life. The root of the sculpture is a robust cactus with arms that reach to the sky. At a closer look, the lines and surfaces of the classic car can be seen. Headlights make up the cactus' flower and the warm glow evokes a vintage comfort.
