Mini-Me II (Lil' NickyII) 

styrene, paint, charcoal, welded steel
dimensions: 48 in x 6 in x 6 in
2002 

This small work was made using a styrene model kit modified to represent a large cart or trailer supporting a steel and graphite object similar to the one from Rapid Deployment Minimalist Sculpture in the style of the Mujahedin. The small self-portrait's face was carved from the original plastic cast, and paint and other plastic elements were added. The model is mounted to a steel cylinder where the work's title is written in paint marker.
