Fanatics Fest

Fanatics Fest 2025 brought together some of the biggest names in sports and entertainment, and I was fortunate to contribute to two Lady Liberty sculptures fabricated at Smash Designs for the event. One stood ready to fight in a boxing ring, while the other was captured in motion reaching for a baseball.

My involvement focused primarily on the baseball version, where I helped sculpt and refine the flowing dress. Creating believable fabric movement at that scale pushed me to study how folds, weight, and motion interact, making it one of the most rewarding sculpting challenges I've worked on.

Seeing both sculptures installed among professional athletes, celebrities, and thousands of fans was an unforgettable experience and a proud moment in my journey as a sculptor.
