Small concrete figures staring mournfully into potholes and rubbish-filled rivers, perching on security cameras and committing mass suicide in oily puddles — the creations of Brussels-based street artist Isaac Cordal delight and depress their accidental observers. Cordal sculpted his gents from clay, made silicone molds, poured in the cement and permanently affixed his emotional Lilliputians with high strength epoxy glue to the Berlin Wall, the streets of London, and the rocky shores of France.

His businessmen are best: They beg, march, and personify BP-disaster shame by wallowing in sidewalk tar or “floating” on life preservers. Part dark humor, part social commentary, Cordal’s urban interventions are now out in a hot-item hardcover book form: Cement Eclipses. See some of the world’s smallest, saddest suits in our gallery.

I love this project, it's funny, dark and a really good social commentary on not just the BP oil crisis, but on mundane existence as well. I really want to get back into my AnnonyMouse project and create something similar to this. I need to work on my model making.
The designs are so simple for these but it's the technical part that I need to practice, just learning how to make models with different materials.
