A Cedar Tribute: Crafting Memories in Wood

Isn't it fascinating how sculptors can turn a piece of wood into literally anything? This impeccable timelapse features Simone carving a miniature Smart Pure out of cedar wood. "This smart car was carved by me," Simone shared. "I am a self-taught artist who has been working with wood since I was 16." The artist revealed that this stellar piece of art was created for his uncle, who recently discarded his Smart car. "I carved the Smart Pure as a kind of headstone," Simone explained, "because sometimes a picture does not help a person fully recall memories as well as a real and three-dimensional object can." This beautiful sculpture not only showcases Simone's skill but also serves as a touching tribute to cherished memories.
