Most of us build snowmen in winter. Traditionally, they are cute and sweet, with a carrot for a nose and an old scarf. However, this artist decided to celebrate this tradition a little differently. Alexander Savski, an artist from Sarov, Russia, built an untraditional snowman based on the character Pennywise from the movie It. The creepy clown was built on a swing set in a playground on Nekrasov Street and it’s quite nightmare-inducing.
“I recently heard about a snowman competition and decided to participate. There were 3 categories in the competition: the biggest, the most creative, and the smallest. The winners would win a prize, but victory wasn’t important to me,” the artist told Bored Panda. Alexander had to wait for the perfect weather conditions to create this creepy sculpture because the snow had to be perfect for shaping: “I needed the temperature outside to be above freezing so that the snow could be carved well. I followed the weather forecast daily, as I was looking forward to that day. It took me several hours to create it. I managed to finish it just before nightfall. Even though the weather was good, it quickly melted and fell apart, so I needed to revive it during filming. Without an assistant, I would sculpt and shoot at the same time.”
What do you think about Alexander’s sculpture? Would you be scared if you found it in the playground next to your house? Share your thoughts in the comments!
