Brooklyn artist Nick van Woert takes the classic, albeit typical, bust to new crafty heights. By applying various plasters, paints and plastics to the busts at atypical angles, employing drips, puddles and buildups, van Woert's work many times has a stalagmite feel to it - uneven growths hiding a familiar form. Beyond his bust and buildup pieces, van Woert also explores other sculptural applications which you can explore on his site. Check out a few more pieces below.
