Reminds me of many recent China artists sculptures. Love the paintings in the back. |

Those paintings were sold to Osage Gallery, incidentally. Those busts are in Louie's studio. |

Thanks for the links! His horror stuff reminds me of Suehiro Maruo while his psychedelic stuff reminds me of Keiichi Tanaami and neither in a bad way. I really like his ink work here: http://www.jonathanlevinegallery.com/?method=Artist.ArtistDetail&ArtistID=1B916A05-115B-5562-AA169FCE53827CA6&GalleryID=82C33C59-3048-28EB-92DB386C8C733405 |

Then it also works as "performance art" right!!?!? I've always wanted to set up an "ant farm" inside a giant piece of clear vinyl. I just haven't come across anything large enough that was affordable. |

Mind-bending. I'm assuming he put a nice thick coating of lacquer over it? |
