Although Shi Jindian's [wireframe motorcycle](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wire-mesh) rendition is currently standing in the White Rabbit Gallery. The life-sized Chiangjiang 750 motorcycle [wire installation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/objects-from-frames) certainly seems impossibly intricate.

According to OhGizmo, Shi Jindian created it through "a process where [he] crochets steel wire around an object and then destroys and removes it from the inside." That's pretty intense and the images in the gallery above are even more intense.
