My goodness it was really something. This artist makes sculptures out of a variety of synthetic materials, mostly polyester resin, fibreglass and silicone. The crazy thing is not just their size (which Justin demonstrates above, but Mueck also does small/to scale sculptures) but the unbelievable amount of detail on the sculptures. Each hair is put in individually to have the appearance of hair growing (this includes stubble and body hair) and each tiny detail is painted on painstakingly. The result is really amazing.

Ron Mueck Exhibition
Justin and I have been interested at seeing this exhibition at the Queensland Gallery of Modern Art for a while. So on this beautiful sunny day we took a ride on the citycat and decided to see what all the fuss was about.
