by Seattle artist Scott Fife
"Fife's larger-than-life sculptural portraits of cultural icons are eerily realistic. Like the famous and infamous personalities they represent the busts are complete with flaws and imperfections. "
from the artist:
"I like the aspect of the low-tech tools that I need to make something like this. In the beginning [it was] an Xacto knife, masking tape and glue–now it's the screwgun. So that hasn't changed much at all–the directness of it, that I could begin to shape this, I can make this very plastic without any special process."
