BEETLE SPHERE

BEETLE SPHERE
ICHWAN NOOR

Indonesian artist Ichwan Noor (Jakarta, 1963) is renowned for his large-scale sculptures of hybrid human, animal and technological forms. Noor focuses exclusively on the man-made, modifying different vehicular components into new, simplified shapes in which their original function is challenged. This 1953 Beetle is one in a series of lifesize full-scale VWs transformed into to perfect spheres and cubes.
