You're looking at Nathaniel Herringbone, biologist, a collaborative piece from Doktor A and Chris Ryniak for The Study which opens on June 6th, 2009 @ Rivert Gallery featuring art from Steve Cvinar, Dave Pressler, Johnny Yanok and Doktor A.
Straight from Doktor A, here's the background on Mr. Herringbone —
"Set with the task of measuring, sketching and generally recording all information about any new species encountered by the expedition. Nathaniel is however easily bored and distracted. This low attention span makes him prone to flights of fancy. Which sees most of his animal renderings sporting gratuitously fashionable waistcoats."
Looks like Herringbone's latest discovery is a pink rock-like creature fresh from Ryniak's fertile imagination. Nathaneil Herringbone is a 7" customized Lefty figure (Vinyl, copper, brass, lead, rubber, cloth, paper, Polymer Clay, Epoxy resin, found objects).
Doktor A's pieces for The Study provide insight on the Retropolis Royal Scientific Society's efforts to collect and document the indigenous flora and fauna of the wild-lands of Planet Victoria. The findings of their expeditions will unfold across 5 small 3D pieces, 2 medium 3D pieces, one large 3D piece, the Ryniak collabo, a painting and 3 small framed drawings.
