I'm back with the final installment of images of the so called Mystery Bust. .
The story began last year when I was approached by Chris Curreri  to assist him in producing a new sculpture as a part of his upcoming photo installation at the Daniel Faria Gallery. The sculpture was to be a new interpretation of the Medusa image. Chris commissioned me to sculpt the bust under his direction and specifications. The bust was later moulded and cast in cement. The pictures are of the finished bust at the exhibition.

Happy New Year

I'm back with a series of posts about a commission that started back in September of this past year.
The artist Chris Curreri  and I had a number of conversations over the past several months about the opportunity to work together again on a sculpture idea Chris had been working on for an upcoming show. Under Chris' direction I began sculpting this bust and the above images illustrate the early development of this piece.

I'll be back soon with the third installment. Cheers.
