Photorealism is a great "fun" for those sculptors who are very familiar with photography, in particular with portraits.

Chain reaction. Bicycle chain sculptures by Yeong-Deok Seo
It is believed that two different people cannot come up with one brilliant idea. But there is another opinion: geniuses think the same way.

Portraits from poetry and prose. Pictures of Jamie Poole (Jamie Poole) from pieces of literature
When they talk about a verbal portrait, they mean, as a rule, a verbal description of a person, his appearance, qualities, habits, character traits. Whereas the "verbal portraits" of the British artist Jamie Poole cannot be called verbal, because they can be seen, touched, picked up, and some even read.
