The  "Misfortunate Travelers" statue was produced for Yves Laroche Galerie
d'Art in Montreal, to debut at the "Gardens of Misfortune" two-man show with
Chris Ryniak and Jonathan Bergeron.Standing just over 7"  tall and cast in resin,
the statue features a base created by Bergeron  with a small creature resting
on top created by Ryniak.  The statue was  digitally sculpted by Bigshot's Scott
Wetterschneider from a sketch by  the two artists, and produced by Bigshot
Toyworks.
An edition of  100 pieces in a bronze colorway were created as an exclusive for
Yves  Laroche, and are only available at retail from the gallery. This final  black
colorway is an edition of 150 pieces and is the only edition that  will ever be
offered to retailers or other galleries. 
(Due to a factory  error, the additional bronze statues were never produced and
only black  will be available outside of the Yves Laroche Galerie d'Art in  Montreal.)
