Walk through Ron Mueck’s sculpting process as his hyperrealistic, self-portrait Mask II is installed beside the Easter Island statue Hoa Hakananai'a at the British Museum.

This installation brings to light the limitless nature of what can be achieved in sculpture through scale, materials and texture, and how these elements are common throughout history and humanity’s pursuit of breaking the bounds of human limitation.

Originally made for Statuephilia: Contemporary sculptors at the British Museum. The exhibition included works by Damien Hirst, Antony Gormley, Ron Mueck, Marc Quinn and Noble and Webster.
