Trend Hunter has featured Derek Weisberg before, and now he's back with some new sculptures. The artist doesn't stray too far from his previous works, staying with a theme of sullen melancholy models. In this particular exhibit, Weisberg makes his sculptures life-sized and includes past pieces that are smaller in size. Each work examines the pains of human life, such as death, pain and misery.
Derek Weisberg's show entitled 'Auroral Dreaming' is currently on display at Anno Domini in San Jose, California until March 19.
