Really like the large ones. Must be pretty surreal to see in person.

Edit: Some previews.

The uncanny valley springs to mind...

reminds me that I need to get some sculpting material.


I really want to see these pieces in real life, there's only so much that can come across from an image of a sculpture.

man those are trippy... would be awsome to see them in person (larger ones especially :P)


needs more SSS and translucency to the skin imo :poly136:

And some are just highly disturbing - like the one with no nostrils or mouth.

Mueck is great. I know a few folk here have seen his stuff.

Yeah, Mueck is the man.

Rhinokey

it seems there would be a tremendous.. heart aching destroying that clay sculpt to remove the mold

Ya. I've seen a few of these sculptures in real life at Airports and such in my travels. At first I thought it was some weird performance art. "Why is that fat lady standing perfectly still in a glass box?"

This is the level of skill I aspire to. I am of the opinion that once you're able to recreate reality with this level of accuracy and detail, you'll be that much better with your imaginative works.

Saw Mueck's show in Ottawa last year.

Pictures don't do it justice. See it in person if you're ever given the opportunity.

I saw this in person here in Dallas, really awesome, but extra creepy. I kept seeing them out of the corner of my eye and thinking they were real and freaking out for a second. Pretty good if you can do that.

Malus

Yeah saw his Paris exhibition. The guys a freak.
