Now that’s a sick madness! If you have never heard about Japanese wood sculptor named Haroshi, go get the wind of his most original conceptual art. As a creator of amazingly beautiful wooden sculptures out of old, crashed and broken skateboard decks, Haroshi passed for a man of considerable resourcefulness. His multicolored and meticulously sculpted art pieces simply astound with lifelike affinity, so in whichever way it’s even possible to mistake them for being real! In his works he stacks many layers with all piece elements being connected either in their original form or in shapes to form wooden mosaic, dots, and pixels. After that they’re cut down to size, shaven to get rid of the debris, and afterwards coated with a final glossy finish. And with a long-term passion for skateboarding, Haroshi even puts a broken metal skateboard piece in the center of each sculpture to give soul to the statue. You’d better see this bewildering craftsmanship and planning involved with the unrolling showcase:

Ahh, he’s a Deadhead…notice the Stealie on his desk. Makes perfect sense now, truly awesome!
I love these sculptures. I’ve got some used boards in the garage, how do I get them to you.
If stumble allowed me to ‘Love It’.. this would be one of those things. Like just doesn’t suit.
I did this once taking the long way around. Staining laminate walnut. Clearly not as colorful as this!
Lovely Designs
this is brilliant..wow i would never have thought that this could be done and just from skaate boards. you sir/ma’m are a genius, its amazing how ones imagination can take you make you do things that no one else could possibly have imagined.
I tried doing this once a while back. Couldn’t quite get the pieces glued together properly. These people definitely know what they are doing! Amazing.
