Bone sculptures are not at all what you might think. No devilry, skeletons, monsters and creatures from the afterlife, everything is much more pleasant and familiar. And we are not talking at all about the bones that make up our body with you, but about dicethat make up the bodies of gamblers in the project Dice cast Korean painter and sculptor Kim Hyun … Perhaps people who donated their bodies to science, more precisely, who acted as prototypes of sculptures from cubes, would never have called themselves gambling, but Hyun Kim is a maestro, which means almost a magician. Having made casts of the silhouettes, he then repeated all the lines and bends with the help of a thin wire, on which he strung colored dice in the only order he understood. The result is what we see in the pictures. Visualization of the famous expression "Our whole life is a game."
Unfortunately, the author's site consists entirely of Korean characters, so it is not possible to learn a little more about his work. Perhaps someone will be more fortunate, and if anything, information about sculptures from the Dice Cast series - on the Kim Hyun page.

Pushkin, Dostoevsky and others: Which of the greats was a gambling gambler and what troubles it turned into
