Fish Sculptures by Ex-F1 Mechanic Alastair Gibson

racing-fish-sculptures

Alastair Gibson, former BAR Honda Chief F1 Mechanic has combined his love for sculpture and car parts knowledge into wonderful works of art. Recently displayed at the Chelsea Art Fair, Gibson’s creations are basically familiar sea creatures that include sharks, piranhas, trouts, ans more. The sculptures are made from carbon fiber and real discarded Honda F1 car parts. The details of his fishes are really unique and amazing, even down to the teeth and fins, with some of the sculptures measuring up to two and a half meters long. Another creature also includes a hammerhead shark, which is one of the more impressive and more detailed works in the collection.

See more of his works after the jump.

This is one of the most creative productions of a human mind i have come across. Absolutely love the art, aesthetics and detailing that comes from this technical brain of yours.

Kudos!

Amazing work. Incredibly awesome design, detail, materials. I really like the fact that the fish are just cartoony enough to have a fun personality. Wow!
