In a little over one month, Scott Radke has wrapped up his second totem commission, this one going out to actress/producer Nathalie Rheims. Standing an astonishing 6’9″ (81″) tall, the sculpture is crafted from clay and burlap. These just keep getting better; peep the gallery below for close-ups of these enchanting creatures.
Yeah, so like I was saying: Scott Radke doesn’t waste any time. Following last week’s teasers of his second totem commission for actress/producer Nathalie Rheims, comes the next (and final) creatures for the piece, which look to be a rabbit and goddess. I love the movement of this piece and the liveliness of these creatures despite the totem being a static sculpture. The hunch of the raccoon from all of the weight, the goddess teetering on top … just incredible. Very excited to see it all painted up. More photos to come!
Wow. A week after Scott Radke shipped out his enormous animal totem commission to Morgan Spurlock, he gets right to work on another, this one for actress/producer Nathalie Rheims. Kicking it off with a snail base and raccoon rider, I’m super curious as to what other creatures this second totem will produce. More soon!
The totem is finally complete. Stacked four high and measuring an astounding 5’8″ with a three foot wingspan, Scott Radke pulled out all the stops for this commission for filmmaker Morgan Spurlock. Nearly six months in the making, this monster tower of human-animal hybrids is crafted from clay and burlap. Breathtaking. May it travel safely to its new owner! More images below.
This is just freaking insanity. How does this thing even balance?! Since last October, Scott Radke has been sculpting this epic animal totem for filmmaker Morgan Spurlock. A towering 67” tall (5’ 7”!!!), the totem is now complete and Scott is on to the painting stage. Stay tuned, for the saga continues!
