Lunatic Laughs is a unique sculpture.
I hand carved him in English Lime wood back in 2003
The mechanism is made from oak and pine.
Painted in acrylic and finished in waxed.
I am a sculptor and Automata maker and have been creating automata professionally over the last 25 years. I enjoy creating the playful mechanisms and sharing them. My work has been exhibited around the world in museums and galleries. I have made commissioned pieces for public institutions and private collections.
