ABOUT THE ARTIST

What do Medicine and Drama have in common...?
Operating out of a THEATER!

I'm Logan Sic, bonafide unlicensed medical unprofessional taking my shaky hands to a field much more apt to it, at your service (or detriment, if you prefer)!
I'm a handicrafter above all else and have been doing theater in some way, shape, or form since I was about ten years old. Even further back than that, though, I've been sewing since I could hold a needle and kicked off with dollmaking at about eight years old following my first Renaissance Faire. I've come a long way from those crumbling clay dragons- while my work's overall taken a roarier, gorier, turn my fondness for creatures brought to life put me on costume design's doorstep.
Multimedia projects are my favorite- I could never pick a single discipline, I like running amok too much. Whether it be puppets, props, costumes, dolls, drawings, printmaking, just to name a few, I've got a grab bag of skills under my belt and it's growing every day.

Why Live Dissection?
Live
My art being 'live'- performed live, tangible, in a space with an audience- is something incredibly important to me. There's something about sharing air and breath with a performance or art itself that can't be imitated across other mediums. Even in film or photos, the moment of being live in the space with other performers, props, and costumes is equally as important as the final product to be experienced.
Dissection
I believe art is a process of probing and personal exploration, not unlike a medical or scientific dissection- there is an aspect of prying open and revealing one's innards in creation. Additionally, the visual of the operating theatre is one that's been aesthetically and thematically formative to my work.

DUCHESS, aka "BIG UGLY" - 2025

is that the tooth fairy's dog, or what?

WHAT'S THE DEAL?

In 2025, I was fortunate enough to receive a research grant to fund a trip to the leading industry convention for those interested in horror-based live entertainment- Transworld. Truly the Mecca of the morbidly inclined. With what I studied and learned there from the masters, my intent was to design and construct a creature bigger and badder than anything I’d made prior. With what I’d seen at the show, I knew I wanted two things: wet and nasty, and with that came the concept of something toothy, hairy, and terrible. Dubbed Big Ugly, this monster was my first foray into larger-scale detailed work and construction with materials such as lycra and latex. The techniques of sculpting and layering with latex has become a foundational part of my current work and a favorite medium of mine. Sporting 140+ hand-shaped teeth, as well, Big Ugly’s got plenty to smile about. Ever heavy on the gimmicks, a tube through her tongue allows for an operational ‘spitting’ mechanism and an incision in her chest opens up to reveal a rack o’ bloody ribs. Presently making the transformation from costume to functional puppet, Big Ugly has plenty of sccares and a short film feature ahead of her.

get your body on the slab for this one!

For the last three years, I’ve been doing the UWL charity drag show as some form of off-the-wall creature, beginning my freshman year with a valentine’s-bedeviled rabbit and followed by my sophomore year as a big bad butch werewolf with 6 pastied wolf boobies. This year I was told I had a higher quota of nipples to fill and thus the wretched dissection pig flasher was brought stripping and squealing into this world. The parts of this project were twofold- first, draping, patterning, and constructing the comically large flasher trench coat containing a bone saw, section of faux umbilical cord, and more syringes than one could shake a stick at, and second, bringing the emboobened bodysuit to life. The latter was a process of first form-fitting a repurposed stretch garment to the body, building breast forms, and then essentially papier-macheing over it with latex and fabric, creating a sturdy and fleshy skin for it. Everything but the liquid latex for this costume was repurposed from scrap I’ve been collecting- in all of my personal work, my goal is to reduce-reuse-recycle as much as humanly possible. Through a labor of love, latex, trial, tears, and error, I was able to get this body off the slab and onto the stage to a mix of cheers and fear. I’d consider this specific undertaking a personal capstone for the semester and a sort of debrief from the original work done for my research grant.
