The Naomi Campbell statue

Filed under: Events: On the Scene


Naomi Campbell is undoubtedly crazy, but the fashion industry just can't seem to get enough of her -- as is evident in the sculptures that are being made to immortalize the diva and her bad ass attitude.

Famed fashion photographer Nick Knight is using three-dimensional scanners to create the sculptures. On the project, Knight says: "Photography is changing completely, and one of the things that's doing this is 3-D scanning. You get a 360-degree view of her, and because it's all digital, that data can be used to output real objects. You can lay one image over another and create sculptures that would never have been conceived if you were chipping away at marble."

The pieces of art depicting Naomi's likeness will be released at the end of the year. We can't wait to see the final product.

(No word if there were any Blackberrys or people broken in the making of these sculptures.)
