Well, who would have thought that from a boy who is fond of modeling, and then from a young man who is engaged in ceramics and sculpture, the author of ugly dolls will grow up, which children should not be given, not only to play, - even to look, even from the corner of their eyes, even in the daylight! By the way, oversensitive adults, and just lovers of beauty and positivity, are not recommended to consider the works of Thom Kuebler either …
American maestro Scott Thomas Kuebler, a sculptor by education and vocation, was originally a ceramist like his father. However, after graduating from university with a degree in sculpture, he suddenly became interested in toy design, which he worked on, working in the Disney studio, and later in the cinema and theater. Thomas Kubler's favorite pastime was sculpting faces and creating masks, which he, in fact, did, collaborating with anthropologists. And then his own project was born - gigantic, in the sense, full-length, dolls, which, with all the desire, cannot be called cute and good-natured.
Basically, the characters of Scott Thomas Kuebler (Thom Kuebler) are mythical or fictional. But they look very natural, as for the legendary "heroes". And some, in particular, the Frankenstein doll, have a direct road to Madame Tussauds.
The author says little about his works. Basically, he focuses on the fact that his dolls are not just big ugly sculptures, but above all a variety of characters. To create such a "character" he needs more than one week of thought and hard work, since this is what he considers to be the basis of all his products. By the way, ugly giant dolls of Scott Thomas Kuebler (Thom Kuebler) sell well in museums, private collections and even for decoration interior design in restaurants and offices.
