Shrine of the Rising Sun.

This was the "Hall of Oddities" perspective assignment. The requirements were to make four sculptures on four similar ornate pedestals with a minimum of three arches on each side. I decided to go with an oriental approach for the museum. I made the pedestals in the style of Chinese architecture while making the arches inverted as ropes with Shinto tags. I added in samurai armor as the sculptures and put ninjas on the top to fill up negative space. They also added a good amount of narrative.

This piece was inspired by my good friend Jack Corpening.
