About the Artwork

Fat Man’s Face/Head Sculpture , by Cristina Rommel cast in Shiny Aluminium, a Lifesize Bust of a greedy balding Old Man. inherit”>En la obra se puede observar como tiene una mirada atenta como buscando qué más puede comer y tragar, incluso le cuelga de la boca, un hilo de baba dando a entender el placer y deseo que tiene de comer y beber. Pero detrás de su cabeza hay manos, como expresando más ganas de guardar y acaparar cada vez más; aunque hay otras manos que quieren salir del cuerpo como diciendo ya no puedo comer más, voy a explotar.

Lo anterior ha sido traducido del español: En la obra se puede ver como tiene la miraba atenta como buscando que más puede comer y tragar, hasta le cuelga de la boca, un hilo de baba dando a entender el placer y deseo que tiene por comer y beber. Pero detrás de la cabeza le salen manos, como expresando más deseo de guardar y acaparar más y más; Aunque hay otras manos que quieren salir del cuerpo como diciendo no puedo comer más, voy a explotar.

Artist Comment

Gluttony is another of the deadly sins, a head modelled and cast in aluminium. Gluttony is an excessive appetite for food and drink. This sin threatens human life, since by the desire to eat and eat there is no measure between what is right and wrong. It is magical to see how the subconscious of people, including myself, where in each of the sins you can see a normal part and another that is not. We all have a little bit of the deadly sins, because they are part of the soul of the human being. Everything in its measure is fine. Translated from Spanish: Es mágico ver como el subconsciente de las personas, entre las cuales me incluyo, donde en cada uno de los pecados se puede ver una parte normal y otra que no lo es. Todos tenemos un poco de los pecados capitales, por ser parte del alma del ser humano. Cada cosa en su medida esta bien.

  • The ArtParkS Guarentee

    All the sculptures on the website are described by the Artists themselves stating the materiel they are made from and their dimensions. If they are stated to be suitable for outdoors they have a guarentee of 10 years subject to the effects of weathering which will alter their colour and finish over the years unless you give them  regular cleaning and maintenance. For instance Bronze and to a lesser extent bronze resin/cold cast bronze will aquire a green patina, usually rather sought after and all could attract moss  lichen and a greeny pollen especially under trees which should be removed regularly with warm water and washing up liquid.
    Iron and steel will oxidise(rust ) and this falls outside our guarentee.
    Organic materiel like wood, bark willow is variable and depends to a great extent on where it is sited and you should discuss any guarentee direct with the Artist as this too falls outside our Guarentee.
