Kinetic art that evokes the march of time and the dance of line. Continue reading
Toy car traffic jam: Chris Burden’s Metropolis II
Thousands of cars shooting around in an endless loop: just because it looks like dystopia doesn’t mean it’s not delightful. Continue reading
You in Carbonite: Custom Carbonite Sculptures
While Han might have shot first, he certainly didn’t pull off a miracle to keep himself carbonite-free. The Han Solo in Carbonite image has become one of the many iconic images from the Star Wars films. And now, you can be a part of it. Designer Paul Pape creates custom made-to-order Carbonite sculptures, replacing Han Solo with a custom model of you or anyone you want. For $50, Pape will create a 1.75″ x 4.25″ x .75″ Carbonite sculpture which... Continue reading
Kevin Bacon Made of Bacon
Personally, I don’t really see the resemblance, at all. This bacon bust looks more like the love child of Conan O’Brien and Bill Clinton than a sculpture of Sir Kevin Bacon. J&D Foods teamed up with bacon-crafting blog What Do Bacon Do to create this Bacon Bust of Kevin Bacon. The bacon bust is available for purchase on eBay and will be up for bids for about nine more days. There are already 24 bids, so if you’re looking to... Continue reading
Super Mario Anatomy Sculpture
Video game characters are people too. Well, most of the time. With all of the blustering and bowing we’ve come to expect from ourselves when we talk about our favorite gaming character of all time, we sometimes forget the humanity of these characters. The flesh and blood. Salvaged from one of his hundreds of million lost lives, this Super Mario Anatomy Sculpture by Jason Freeny advertises the heart (quite literally) and soul of Mario, the human being. The lovable, heroic,... Continue reading
LEGO Art Hits the Streets with Hugman
Our favorite LEGO artist, Nathan Sawaya, has decided to do something a little different this time around. His newest project takes LEGO bricks to the streets of New York City. Meet Hugman, a humanoid LEGO structure built to hug various objects in populated areas. While Hugman rarely spends more than one day in one given spot (we imagine he’d be subject to vandalism if left much longer), seeing a LEGO sculpture in any capacity should be enough to change your...

Forget Blow Up Dolls: The CAT5 Cable Girl Sculpture
While fleshlights and real dolls might have changed the way we looked at self-satisfaction, there’s never really been a sexually provocative product geared specifically to us geeks. And while Kasey McMahon’s self-portrait might not be the most delicate or pain-free renditions of sexual objects, it’s still a pretty blatant form of geek pr0n no matter how you look at it. Made using steel, CAT5 and other data cables, the Connected self-portrait makes our geeky hearts beat just a little faster.... Continue reading
The Surprisingly Bacon-less Starship Enterprise Made Out of Assorted Meats
I know what you’re thinking. This is a meat sculpture. A geeky meat sculpture at that. There should definitly be some sort of bacon integrated into the design, or at the very least, Unicorn Meat. But, alas, there is no bacon to be found. Some Trekkies will just never learn. Created using various sausages and even some salami for good measure, the Meat Starship Enterprise is the Trekkies answer to the meat appetizer spread. Caloric, fatty, meaty, delicious. Link [via]
Surf’s Up, Yoda-man!
Catch a wave, I will. Check out this creatively geeky sculpture mashing up the universal symbol for “surf’s up!” with Yoda’s oblong head. This might just be an image I’ll never be able to unsee. Link [via]
Mario Meets Michelangelo: La Pietá Goes Geek
Based on Michelangelo’s famed sculpture, La Pietá (which you can see after the jump), designer Kordian Lewandowski used a block of polystyrene foam to complete his very own work of art – the Nintendo-inspired Game Over sculpture. Measuring slightly taller than an averaged sized man (seems to be about six-feet tall), Game Over mixes the drama of Renaissance art with the caricatured elements of gaming design. Sometimes I wish I had artistic talent, and then I remember how much I... Continue reading
