The Strangest Sculptures That Don’t Look Real

Sometimes, it seems like sculpture artists could also classify themselves as physicists… They just know how to defy the laws of gravity and make it look easy!

Now Lean Back

This is Leaning Statue Sculpture by Emil Alzamora. Not even a person could pull off this look.

Seems Safe Enough

Honestly, this structure looks like it’s been there for a while, so it probably won’t just randomly tip over… Hopefully?

A New Look to The Ball and Chain

It’s a pretty impressive feat to make a sculpture look like it’s an actual balloon. This is also a kind of weird spot for a sculpture, but, whatever!

Don’t Let It Get Away

She’s not letting that ball go anywhere! This sculpture basically puts physics in its place.

Wire Fairies

This series of fairies takes sculptures to the next level. It’s so easy to forget that these are real and not photoshopped!

Elephant Pillar

Talk about a balancing act! Even though this is definitely super sturdy, I’d be afraid that it could fall over at any minute.

Pretty Strong Bird

This artist made it seem like the sculpture is being held up by the tiny bird, which makes it very tricky to the mind.

Big Splash

Sculpting the tea pouring out of the cups is one thing, but also somehow incorporating two faces? It seems impossible!

Look A Little Closer…

This piece will easily have you circling around it for a half hour… How is it hovering like that? It’s all about tricking the eye!

Forget Something?

He may have forgotten half of his body, but he didn’t forget his suitcase!

Need Some Books?

Get your knowledge on with all of these books! Is this a waste, or art?

Just Hangin’

As cool as this looks, I would not want to be the apartment that this is hanging off of! A bit too scary for my tastes.

Trick Of The Eye

Believe it or not, these sculptures are made out of wood. Very spooky!

Watch Out!

This artist went above and beyond with this piece, even going as far to create a little sewer grate to really capture the action.

The Great Escape

It looks like this just isn’t physically possible, and yet, someone made it possible! What happens when there’s a huge storm? How sturdy is this thing?

Balancing Act

What kind of glue did this artist use? These are steel sculptures that look as light as a feather!

Different Kind of Racecar

If only race tracks were really this cool… Even though gravity wouldn’t really let that happen.

Yoga Life

This type of yoga wouldn’t be very fun… I much prefer goat-yoga.

A Little Eerie

These are pretty crazy sculptures, but also kind of give off some scary UFO vibes. Either way, pretty impressive!

What’s Left

How many people have tried to climb up that latter and hang out up there? probably too many… Although, that would make a pretty cool Instagram photo.

Balance Is Not Easily Attainable

Somehow, this artist made it look easy. What kind of trials and errors do you have to go through to attain this look…

Look Alive!

This car really shredded up the track!

Giant Floating Baby

Not really. In fact, this sculpture is delicately balancing on its hand. You know, just chilling. null

Safe!

What better way is there to honor a goalie than by putting a crazy statue in front of the stadium?

New Type of Light

I wonder if this light actually works? It would look pretty cool! A bit excessive for a city light, but still.

Floating Rocks

Are sculpture artists also physicists? Like, how is this even possible?

Boy and the Dolphin

This is a pretty popular sculpture that always turns heads.

Don’t Fall!

What is the magic behind this? How did the artist get this statue to balance like that?

The Art of Rock Balancing

There’s a guy out there who just enjoys balancing rocks. No glue, no nothing. Just gravity.

Stairway to Heaven

Obviously, this is just an optical illusion, but I really want to try and walk that whole thing…

Elephant Acrobatics

No, the room isn’t turned on it’s side. They somehow managed to get this elephant sculpture to hang off of the wall like this. It’s crazy!

Weird Waterfall

Is this what faucets look like to bugs? Probably.

Swirly Thoughts

This had to have taken so long to get perfect… It was well worth it!

There Goes That Elephant Again

Apparently, this is a pretty popular sculpture to make!

Tractor Trailer Art

Who would have thought that tractor trailers could be so artistic? A carnival is definitely a good fit for this piece…

Gravity-Breaking Table

When you break gravity but it’s still pretty functional… And cool looking!

Puppeteer

There’s a lot going on here, and it all exceeds my knowledge of how these crazy structures work.

In A Pinch

Was the ground already like this? How did they do this? Why is it so cool?

Yes, This Is Real

This looks like it’s just superimposed onto the picture, but it’s not! The way the light hits this piece makes it look crazy cool.

Shadow People

Someone put in these mirrored sculptures in the woods, making a pretty eerie sight!

Sand Castle Master

Whoever did this is a genius… Making sand stand up like that? Impossible. And somehow, it was done.

Acrobatics You Wish You Could Do

How is this guy not falling over, though? Like, is it glue, or just crazy balance? This is nuts.

Now You See It

Definitely an interesting piece that doesn’t make sense… But, that’s what’s fun about it!

Do A Flip!

This somehow looks so real!

Do You See It?

They were able to carve out someones face in this! Crazy!

Spider Prowler

This spider is precariously watching over this town on it’s tippy toes.

Just Hangin’ Out, Don’t Worry About It

Let’s hope this sculpture is secure on that pole…

It’s Edgy

I mean, why wouldn’t you put a full-bodied statue on its head? You know?

The Upside Down

This is probably a statement from the artist, but it’s honestly, this looks crazy.

Perfect Spot to Propose

This is a pretty easy ploy to get your work noticed, honestly…

Running Wild In The City

They look like they’re in motion all of the time. It’s art in motion!

Taking A Dip

This is just a giant who is taking a dip, mind your business!

Wait For Me!

It might take a minute, but this guy is on his way! Just needs to break through this wall some more…

Follow the Leader

This would be scary to walk on, not gonna lie…

Weirdly Looks Real

This is something that would be startling when you walk into a museum…

Crash Landing

This is a bizarre public sculpture in someones private home… Talk about dedicated to art!

Hungry?

Don’t worry, we’ve got this giant fork ready for you.

What’s The Rest Of It Look Like?

Did they do an entire sculpture or just his head and knees? What is the truth…

Listen To My Violin

This cowboy-man is extremely assertive in the fact that he wants you to listen to him play the violin…

Gotta Go!

This one really messes with your head…
