HUNCHBACK BOY vintage freak show kid 1000 PIECES no. 91

Description

The carnival freak show obsession continues with Hunchback Boy, I'm told he's lovable, huggable even. Some chicks like hunchbacks I guess...Tess.

So, his body is an vintage Wolverine metal and plastic Circus pinball machine with excellent old graphics. It's non functioning (the plunger deal doesn't pull back to shoot the balls) and has some cracks but it's very cool anyway. He has a vintage yellow croquet ball head and bright blue polka-dot pants. Hunchback Boy measures 17" tall by 10 1/2" wide, he's named, signed, dated and number 91 in the series of 1000 Pieces.

Kind words about my work..

Cat Bishop elevates recycling to an art form. Vintage objects collected from flea markets and thrift stores—old toys, dishes, cameras, car parts, game pieces—get assembled and reenvisioned as oddly human and animal sculptures. Singles, couples, and whole families emerge from her ability to imagine anything as a body part—domino feet, cue ball heads, xylophone torsos, teapot bellies. The beings that populate her world of art are both strange and proud—"feel good" creations that evoke sympathy and humor at the same time. Great gifts.

Cat Bishop has sold over 150 sculptures to date on Etsy.com, many of the buyers being repeat customers, evidence of buyer satisfaction. Her work resides in private collections worldwide, including Malaysia, Australia, Switzerland and the UK.
