Ron Mueck is an Australian hyperrealist sculptor. More from Animation Nation:
"His parents were toy makers. He worked on children's television shows for 15 years before creating special effects for the 1986 film Labyrinth.
He then started his own company in London, making models to be photographed for advertisements. Now he's creating on his own and showcasing his work in places such as the Royal Academy, the Millennium Dome in London and the Venice Biennale."
