This is the first major UK exhibition for korean contemporary artist, Gwon Osang. Deodorant type features 14 sculptures by the artist including a number of new works commissioned by manchester art gallery for the show. Osang makes extraordinary life-size sculptures of people using hundreds of photographic images to build up the surface appearance of his models, including the face, their hair and their clothes. His skills as sculptor and photographer combine to make beautifully crafted figures with both photo-realist and surreal qualities.
