Sculpture Ron Mueck is a London-based photo-realist artist. He was born in Melbourne, Australia, to parents who were toy makers.
His passion was in making dolls.
He has worked in children's public television and in advertising before becoming a full-time artist. In the early 1990s, still in his advertising days, Mueck was commissioned to make something highly realistic, and was wondering what material would do the trick. Latex was the usual, but he wanted something harder, more precise.
His passion for dolls has evolved.
Today he is well-known for his over-sized but, overly realistic designs.
His shows are huge draws in New York.
