Land Rovers Grow Up
Land Rover is coming up on its 60th anniversary and to celebrate the occasion, sculpture artist Gerry Judah has created nothing short of a masterpiece. This 34 meter-high installation at the Goodwood Festival of Speed features several, from what I can make out, Range Rovers (?) scaling the structure. The entire thing weighs an astronomical 120 tons and is on display for all to see. Little is known on how the feat was accomplished, but one can imagine it took... Continue reading
Let Your Lady Friends Know, You’re No Shovenist
“The female form is the most attractive in nature,” says Dutch sculptor Mario Philippona. We couldn’t agree more. After all, no one wants a sculpture of a man’s flaccid genitals decorating their home. Instead, why not a coffee table with a woman’s legs and curvy rear-end at each corner? That’s what Mario has been sculpting: erotic home decor inspired by a woman’s figure. He even crafted a fruit bowl inspired by women’s breasts dubbed “Tittyfruity.” The table lets all your...

Pedal Powered Panzer Fights War, Not Wars
Kick ass pedal powered Panzers are fighting the good fight. The second annual Kensington Kinetic Sculpture Derby inspired a group of guys to construct a human powered Panzer Kampwagen III in 11 days for the purpose of crashing the party. By the time they were finished the tank, they were too tired to crash any party, so they just spent the night in the tank. If you’re in the Philadelphia area, you can visit the tank where it is now... Continue reading
Decorate Your Yard With The Living-Dead
There is no better way to have the feds on to you than dead bodies climbing out of your yard. Living-Dead bodies that is. Artist Alan Dickinson, master of self-incrimination, has created his most haunting image of yard sculptures to date. The Zombie of Montclaire Moors let’s all your neighbors know that you’re one sick puppy. This zombie could burrow its way out of your yard scaring would be trespassing kids for a whopping $89.95, but why not just kill... Continue reading
The Hexapod Robot CNC Router is a 3-D Sculpting Machine!
This DIY project from Matt Denton is a six-legged robot that’s able to crawl onto a malleable surface and begin cutting images into it. Though the original design called for a basic pen for drawing, the robot’s now equipped with a cutting tool able to mill three-dimensional surfaces into high density foam. It takes nearly 30 minutes to complete the sculpting and for not bolting down the work surface, I’d say the robot is damn accurate. No way in hell... Continue reading
We Killed Off All The Buffalo; Let’s Find A Replacement
Kinetic sculptor and artist Theo Jansen has been working on pseudo-living creatures for nearly ten years. Dubbed “Strand Beests,” these gigantic sculptors use the wind to walk along the wet sand of the beach in a most life-like manner. Using plastic electrical-conduit, these creatures are constructed from scratch with passive intelligence built into their motor skills enabling them to avoid venturing too close to the water. Eventually he wants to put these animals out in herds on the beaches, so... Continue reading
Noggins: Madam Tussauds On Meth
Brought to you from the twisted mind of Joseph Seigenthaler, Noggins are a series of sculptures created from oil, resin, hair, wax, fabric and Stoneware or Earthware called Noggins. All of the creations are pretty grotesque looking, usually involving a face stuck in a state of contortion, though I’d imagine you could tone it down a bit by throwing one of these on a piece. Believe it or not, this Giger-esque artist isn’t from Europe. Hailing from Nashville, TN originally,... Continue reading
