Plaster Man Bust by Charles Fultz

Diving into the analysis of this mysterious bust, it is worth highlighting the earth-mastic texture that evokes a connection with the earth, a reminder of the clay origin of classical statues. In an ode to ancient sculpture, we find a figure covered in a chainmail-like futuristic fishing net. Does it symbolize a fragment of an unknown past, wrapped in the tools of those who have weathered storms and societal movements? A piece that is reminiscent of both the great hours of fashion and personal archaeology unearthed from the depths of the sea. The fishing net, a basic and utilitarian instrument, becomes a stylized veil, giving the bust the status of a found object or even a buried treasure. The small cubes, floating shards of gold, act as luminous landmarks that attract the eye and perhaps, metaphorically, signal hidden troves of meaning.

Charles Fultz, better known as Chuck, is a former celebrity interior designer who spends his retirement time creating sculptures.
