Gnome Team Selfie

The first half of 2014 has been taken up almost entirely with the new book that I'm working on (look for it in 2015!), but I did manage to make this small sculpture earlier this year for the 10th anniversary Pictoplasma Festival. 

I made this sculpture for the Portrait Gallery of characters for the festival, which happened in late April in Berlin. Somehow I couldn't resist the idea of gnomes taking photos of themselves as a kind of "group selfie" portrait. 

Here it is from all sides: 

I was sad not to be at the festival in person this year, but from the photos I've seen, the Portrait Gallery was the place to be! 

Thanks to Pictoplasma for letting me be a part of their anniversary festival! The portrait gallery is traveling next to MARCO, the Museum of Contemporary Arts in Monterrey, Mexico, where it will be on exhibit from September 18th to January 11th.
