Artists that produce photorealistic sculptures, for the most part, plan to show us our bodies and life as it really is. Technically, artists who struggle for a high resolution level of detail in painting or sculpture is called “hyperrealists”. It is also considered as photorealist sculptors. Photorealistic sculptors make truly amazing sculptures that will make you feel wonder, horror and the sense of looking in someone else’s mirror. In this post, we feature some well-known sculptors Ron Mueck, Adam Beane, Jamie Salmon, Duane Hanson, Sam Jinks and Evan Penny who create sculpture that seems alive in every detail, right down to veins and rashes on skin.
