Hip Hip Decay Sculpture Alvanoto

Hip Hip Decay sculpure Alvanoto is created by the wonderfully talented Ballarat artist Suzanne McRae. Suzanne has imagined and brought to life these amazing ‘one of a kind’ animal sculptures. Her pervious life as a costume designer is evident by her use of beautiful vintage textiles and trims. Materials such as calico, paint, wire, clay and antique spools help bring her quizzical creatures to life and she gives each one a charming name.

Beautiful things now decrepit, once cherished objects now paused in a parallel place. Suzanne’s animals are the anthropomorphic bridge between human and creature.

This dapper fellow is called Alvanoto and he stands on an antique spool and base and is approx 50cm tall with out the stand. Total height is 54.5cm He has a cute button tail and looks resplendent in his vintage stripes and lace and cuffs. Check out our other sculptures by Hip Hip Decay
