Renowned sculptor Sergio Furnari says he's facing major harassment after unveiling the statue of former Turning Point USA CEO Charlie Kirk.
The news comes moments after he did a mega unveil of the viral statue of the famous slain MAGA activist. Furnari then shared some very hostile messages with staff from TMZ, including serious threats to vandalize the artwork and text wishing for his death.
Despite the serious backlash that they faced, Furnari maintains that he's politically neutral and did not support Kirk during his lifetime. He also explained how he was more than motivated to create this piece after the fatal shooting took Kirk's life.
He drew inspiration from Kirk's advocacy for free speech and the subsequent public treatment of his widow, Erika Kirk.
The Statue will reportedly be featured in New York City's Times Square on September 10, he concluded.
