A majestic bust carved from LEGO captures the spirit of revolution

Marble? Plaster? Jin Chen has chosen LEGO for this rugged bust. Titled La Marseillaise, the face is modeled on the revolutionary spirit of France as sculpted by François Rude on the Arc de Triomphe. The monochromatic palette with a single point of light showcases the wonderful depth of this carved brick build.

Jin, who won LEGO Masters China in 2023, displayed the bust, along with his other incredible LEGO sculptures, at China’s AFOL fest last month where it won a trophy for best styling.

Tragically, the delicate bust did not survive the journey home. The revolution is over.
