Eggstreme Chicken Sculptures

Kyle Bean Crafts a Poultry Statue Out of Eggshells

— March 4, 2011 — Lifestyle
Kyle Bean has crafted a quirky eggshell sculpture that will make your Easter egg crafts look completely juvenile. His creation is a play on the mind-boggling question: What came first, the chicken or the egg?

What Came First? is a remarkable piece of artwork. I don’t know how Kyle Bean had the patience to carefully place and glue all the fragile eggshell shards into place. I know that if I were to try and recreate this avian-inspired piece, it would be an epic failure.

What Came First? shows the intricate and detailed skills that Kyle Bean possesses. Using eggshells with different shades and tones, he manages to sculpt an incredible poultry figure that blends both the chicken and the egg together.
