in not really a fan of this as i was of the other one but as before the aspect and reality of the sculpture i so fascinating and real. the texture and colour is realistic and smooth although some parts look more rough than others. also the texture of the fabric is very realistic and soft although made out of wax. it relates to my workdue to the realistic aspect of it and the surreal part of the sculpture
to be honest i don’t really like this sculpture but i find it very intriguing and creative. the sculpture looks so real but then also very abstract with all those different body parts falling off and missing from the sculptures face . i also like the colour and the depth of the sculpture. the realism really relates to my work and the abstract part of it. the colour and depth too as it makes the sculpture more realistic and natural
Eleanor Crook trained in sculpture at Central St Martins and the Royal Academy and makes figures and effigies in wax, carved wood and lifelike media. She has also made a special study of anatomy and has sculpted anatomical and pathological waxworks for the Gordon Museum of Pathology at Guy’s Hospital, London’s Science Museum, and the Royal College of Surgeons of England. She exhibits internationally in both fine art and science museum contexts. She learned the technique of forensic facial reconstruction modelling from Richard Neave and has demonstrated and taught this to artists, forensic anthropology students, law enforcement officers and plastic surgeons as well as incorporating this practice in her own sculpted people.
Following a lifelong interest in Northern Renaissance woodcarving, and influenced by the experience of dissecting in order to learn anatomy, she studied limewood carving at the Geisler-Moroder wood carving school in the Austrian Tyrol. In the interest of making figures more lifelike than the living, using a generous grant from the Wellcome Trust she developed the incorporation of electronic animatronics systems into the sculptures so that her moribund and macabre creations now can twitch and mutter.
this sculpture really relates to the roman style of art and architec. i like this sculpture due texture of it. the texture is so smooth, it really looks like stone although its wax. the angle of it is very inspiring as well as aspect and theme. it really looks like a romantic scenery and death at the same time.
it reltes to my work because of the realism in this sculpture and the texture of it

this sculptures embraces different elements of art. the reason i chose this sculpture is because it shows how wax is easily made and melted. it also shows the depth of the sculpture. the texture of the sculpture is smooth . the sculpture is very realistic and and surreal at the same time because a person cant really be on fire. the colour of the jacket is green and to me it symbolises nature and life. this sculpture relates to mine because of the surreal aspect of it, my work is normally surreal but at the same time realistic.
