Not being a biologist, I'm not actually certain how interspecies breeding works… though I imagine it requires some intoxicating Barry White tunes, a roaring fire and several bottles of wine. Regardless, somehow
Daniel Fleres's majestic Swanicorn and
Scribe's urban savvy "Rumpus Rhino" merged into one magnificent beast: the "Rumpicorn." Created by Scribe for the
previously announced "The Gathering" group exhibition at
Dragatomi, the pitch black form the of the 7-inch tall resin creation made it difficult to see the wonderful sculpted elements, so I did tweak the brightness in the above picture in Photoshop slightly. But now you can easily see those meticulously crafted parts that put the "Rumpus" in the "Rumpicorn!"
"
The Gathering" opens on March 9th, 2013 with a reception from 6-9
PM at
Dragatomi, 2317 J St., Sacramento, CA 95816.
