From National Galleries Scotland: "Born and raised in Edinburgh, Sculptor Kenny Hunter studied at Glasgow School of Art from 1983 to 1987. His work is heavily influenced by plastic toys, in the colours and flawless finish he uses for his sculptures. Hunter sees this as related to classical sculptors who worked with marble until no marks from their chisels and tools could be seen. His work looks as if it has been made by a machine rather than by hand."
