Check Daniel Popper out with your search engine of choice, because pretty much all of his sculptures are amazing.
This is absolutely amazing. Lucky draw for him to get the wood perfectly on the face too or did he plan that? Either way, it’s amazing haha
I’ve never seen it in person, but I think it’s probably not real wood.
I don’t remember if I saw this one in person or not, but the Morton rotates through large, nature-inspired sculptures like this every few years. And you’re right, a lot of them will include natural materials but they are generally metal or concrete shells over a metal frame.
Here’s their current installation: https://mortonarb.org/explore/activities/exhibitions/of-the-earth/
“Made from glass-reinforced concrete, wood, fiberglass, and steel”
