Sculpturing has been a respected form of art since it began in ancient Greece. During the Middle Age, sculptures became a symbol of representing the passion of Christianity.
It can be done through the molding or carving of different materials such as clay, metal, stone, ceramics and wood.
A Nigerian man has redefined sculpturing by molding a human face with a piece of food he was supposed to eat.
The talented Nigerian man identified simply as IB Fortune came up with the genius idea after he got the inspiration while he was eating.
