On the Road to Extinction

Faducci Studio, of North San Juan, CA, is pleased to announce the sculpture, “On the Road to Extinction”. The sculpture features a Rhino, an African Elephant, a Giraffe, an Orangutan, and a Cheetah seated in a Model A Ford car. All of these species are endangered and hovering on the brink of extinction. The artists often sculpt wildlife in an effort to bring awareness to natural environments and to species that are threatened. “On the Road to Extinction” was designed to educate, inspire conservation, create connection and to honor the unique qualities of these animal species.
The outcome of all endangered species lies with the choices humans as individuals make in their lives daily. The sculpture captures the realistic character of each animal species portrayed while showing the trademark whimsy that Faducci Studio is known for. Faducci artwork is designed to capture the interests and inspire the hearts of all ages.
