World Art - by Craig Hill



Kris Kuksi - horrific surreal sculptures

October 30th 2007 01:37
Kris Kuksi sculpture surreal

Channeling Giger, Lovecraft and the collective nightmares of children all over the world, Kris Kuksi makes beautifully intricate sculptures out of 'mixed media' - an assortment of materials and objects that coalesce into beauty.

He's got an entire selection of works in the 'Grotesque category' which should be enough disturbing imagery for the most fanatical horror fan. It seems easy to capture the stuff of bad dreams, until you try to catch them and they sift and dissipate through the gaps in your fingers. Eh?

Dark Roasted Blend has an excellent interview, with more pictures, on their site. The pictures are incredible, showing the level of detail and thought that went into these pieces.

From the interview:

"He soon discovered his distaste for the typical and popular culture of American life and felt that he had always belonged to the "Old World". In personal reflection, he feels that mankind of the West today is an elastic and fragile being driven primarily by greed and materialism."

I love this stuff Cib,

Wonderfully striking and intricately crafted, I hadn't seen Kris Kutski's work before but I will have to look deeper into his work.

Thanks for the guidance.
