If I got a strange sense of satisfaction snapping out pieces for toy model kits, I can't even imagine what I'll feel when assembling 'And When I’m a Man.' A life-sized toy version of the artist himself, it is a unique piece of artwork, to say the least.
Created by Wayne Chisnall, 'And When I’m a Man' is comprised of twelve body parts that piece together to form one large action figure. It is currently being showcased during the States of Reverie exhibition at Scream in Mayfair, London.
