From Virtual Beginnings, Lee Sangsoo’s Spirited Creatures Emerge in Pristine Resin and Steel

From Virtual Beginnings, Lee Sangsoo’s Spirited Creatures Emerge in Pristine Resin and Steel

The Seoul-based artist works with digital imaging tools to create virtual mockups of each sculpture before translating them into 3D-printed resin or stainless steel. The raw material is then coated in pastel hues or natural gradients, bringing to life siamese cats or vivid parrots. Lee is fascinated by the Fourth Industrial Revolution and the evolving, complex relationship between virtual and physical experiences. More

Cross River Government Demolishes Historic Monolith Sculpture, Replaces With A Statue of Jesus

Cross River Government Demolishes Historic Monolith Sculpture, Replaces With A Statue of Jesus
The Cross River State Government has replaced the historic Monolith sculpture with a statue of Jesus, sparking mixed reactions in Calabar. The Monoliths sculpture at Zone 6 roundabout in Calabar, which symbolized the state’s cosmopolitan identity and rich heritage, was demolished and substituted with a statue of Jesus as a shepherd leading sheep. The sculpture honored the world-famous Monoliths found in Alok and other northern regions, showcasing Africa’s ancient civilization and cultural legacy. It was crafted by the late Pastor Anthony Akinbola, a renowned Nigerian artist with numerous works across Nigeria and even exhibitions in the United States.
