Introduction
This set of sculpture is produced by an art student of China as thesis. She collects some classical bad drawing over the traditional standard western sculpture. And according to the light and shadow the painting reflects, she rebuilds the sculpture precisely, including:
Giuliano De ’Medici
Lucius Annaeus Seneca
Marcus Vipsanius Agrippa
Voltaire
Those bad painting is a classic symbol of false representation, but the funny part is the author reconstruct from this bad representation and redo as if it is correct. This sarcastic action produces more meaning than purely sarcastic.
