If there was ever an inanimate object that should feel sorry for itself, it would most definitely be this 'Poor Me' bust. I don't think anyone should ever have to endure melted plastic, no matter how colorful and unique the result may be.
All jokes aside, the Nick van Woert 'Poor Me' sculpture features a a marble-impregnated resin bust that has been covered with polyurethane plastic. A pop art piece, this melancholy masterpiece is stunning to look at.
