Many of you are familiar with Kazuhiro Tsuji‘s hyperrealistic portrait sculptures. His large-scale but extremely lifelike sculptures have captured the attentions of countless art collectors, art enthusiasts, and press. With the skills he perfected during his 25-year tenure as a special effect makeup artist in Hollywood, he brings the standard of hyperrealism to a whole new level. We can witness it on each visible surface of his 200% larger than lifesize three-dimensional portraits. It’s as if Abraham Lincoln, Andy Warhol, Salvador Dali, and special effects make-up artist Dick Smith came back to life, in larger forms than ever.
Personally, I can sense the emotion and personality of the people his sculptures are modeled after. I’m sure many people would also say the same.
