Better Left Unspoken – Sam Lucero

25 Oct Better Left Unspoken – Sam Lucero

My piece is inspired by the clay sculpture “The Demagogue Wears the Devil’s Tongue” by Dug Stanat. I loved the elongated expression this angry zombie-like pirate had. It reminded me of the saying “Speak no evil” only this is what happens if you try to.

I tried to bring color into the reimagined work without over-saturating and losing the feel of the original piece. Everything is made of rice cereal treat and modeling chocolate, with a gel color wash effect.

Follow me on Instagram to see videos of this piece coming to life.
