South African sculptor (born 1961)
Jaco Johannes Sieberhagen (born 25 January 1961) is a South African sculptor. He usually creates sculptures of people and animals using wood, metal, and glass. His metal figures are almost always depicted in a silhouette style, using laser-cutting techniques.[1] The wood in his sculptures is usually found and collected driftwood. He describes the scenes he creates as "landscapes of the mind."[1]
