Young Deok

Young Deok makes 3D sculptures out of bicycle chains, aka link chains. At first i didnt know that this was bicycle chains but thats what intrigued me the most. He wraps around and weaves link chains into a figure or face of somesort. From far away it looks like its silver painted but up close you can see the chains and it gives the piece a little bit of texture and pattern with out distracting you from the piece itself. The faces he makes are huge sculptures that take up the room and his body sluptures tend to be from the neck down or covers the face in some way. But he does still created sculptures with the face and body both seen. He tends to make artwork very similar to each other and called the same name for example if you do a general search of his poece Nirvana you get Nirvana #1 and Nirvana #2 etc, but each piece is different.

My favorite piece is Nirvana #5

Plaster turned into 3D Art

An artist in Austrailia, Shokoofeh Azar, who was originally born in Iran and moved to Austrailia for a better life and more creative life style, created a sculpture out of plaster. The piece is a mold or cast of a womens torso/chest area and has two birds one going inside te neck and the other on its shoulder. It also has a piece of what looks like a broken face where the heart would be. I particularly like this piece for the blue bird, everything except the blue bird is white. The artist describes the art piece, called "the songs and yearnings" as sign or symbol "of all our loves and failures." And I feel the blue bird represents boldness in the piece and a way of broadening love and failure. I think this because the blue bird is the emphasis of the art piece. It stands out to me and my eye when I first look at this piece.

Robert Paisley created a 3D map of Venice out of plaster. I love this piece because it looks so impossibe to be real and to be made out of plaster. It has big and small details and looks so realistic as if you were in a plane flying through venice thats maybe covered in snow at the time. Venice is not the only one he has made, he makes maps of all different well known cities.

Another 3D sculpture made out of plaster and other materials like wood, cardboard, plastic and paper. Is an art piece made by Valery van Leeuwen. He created 3D city, looks like a minature model of a city but more "abstract". It doesnt have the basic vertical straight buildings. The art piece is curved and bent and it looks like its crushing down right in front of you. The textures and transitions from perfectly fine city to falling apartis what I like most about this art piece.
