ArtistWarren Kingreimagines the possibilities of cardboard in his series of figurative sculptures.
The inspiration for these striking statues comes from King’s Chinese heritage.
Prior to becoming a full-time artist, he worked as an engineer and then in software for many years.
One thing led to another, and now Im doing art full time.
Creating figurative sculptures soon became a way for King to get in touch with his ancestry.
So I use my art now as a means to reconnect to that part of my history.
NYC-based artist Warren King creates incredible sculptures from cardboard.
He began constructing these pieces eight years ago during a sabbatical.
King’s art is inspired by his family roots.
Many of the figures are based on people from his parent’s hometown in China.
