These are painted people. Like, real people who she’s painted. Uh… the people in these photographs have been painted by her. Oh, I give up.

Gotta love bronzes. The sheer amount of work involved in making even something as rudimentary as a bronze spoon is enough to make you want to eat with your hands. And here, guys like Mr. Benyei build technically difficult pieces like these that would make any classic master sit up in his grave and go, “Whoa, snap!” Well, maybe if they were a Motown classic master.

OK, so I’m quitting my job now so that I can make cool stuff like this. What the hell! These are all made out of household items like plastic ladles and salad tongs. And yet, on the coolness scale, they kind of make most high tech CGI fancy pants 3D art look like friggin cave paintings. Thank you for this awesomeness!
