The Flying Kick
Posted by Richard Irwin (Belper, United Kingdom) on 2 October 2008 in Art & Design.
Continuing the art in the garden theme. The feet here belong to a sculpture called 'Planet' by Mark Quinn. Another detail of this remarkable piece of work tomorrow.

holy art & sculpture!! i think i may need to pay a visit to this wonderfully cultured part of the world! the sculpture you have been showcasing is spectacular indeed! and what good taste too! the sculpture here in SF could use a lot of improvement -- there are definitely a few choice pieces -- but more often than not i am not only unimpressed -- i am down right repulsed! :( wonderful composition here -- extremely intriguing!! :D

This is fascinating, how long did it actually take him to make this statue do you know Richard? I love the white legs against the green grass. Marvellous!

Phenomenal. Fantastic composition. When I saw the thumb I thought you have cutted the statue from other picture and pasted here... but no! WOW. Truly amazing! It seems he's going to kick the building. Great perspective. 10 stars

This takes on a wonderful unreality that immediately grabs attention. And technically superb, too.
