Yngve Holen: Corpus Quality

'The Legends of Chima' were a fairly short-lived brand of action figures once sold by LEGO. There was also a CGI series for Cartoon Network based on the same little guys. These super animal cyborgs were all in competition for CHI, the vital LIFE FORCE. Artist Yngve Holen has created seven new bronze sculptures based on the characters, partly because: animal cyborgs are very cool. And partly as a way of exploring the concepts young children who play with LEGO toys and watch cartoons are introduced to, and the result this has on their still-developing brains.
