Hollywood heartthrob was pictured alongside Australian singer Nick Cave and British sculptor Thomas Houseago at a museum in Finland in order to reveal his first ever public art exhibition.

Having first started sculpting shortly after his divorce from Angelina Jolie, the star’s appearance came as a complete shock to the Nordic country.On display were sixteen of Brad’s sculptures, one of which is a mould depicting a gunfight.Another was a series of model houses, each shot through with different gauges of ammunition.His first ever sculpture, from 2017, "House A Go Go": an 18-inch miniature house made out of tree bark, crudely held together with tape, is also featured.Spending up to 15 hours a day in artist Houseago’s Los Angeles studio on one sculpture alone.Back in 2015 Brad shared in an interview that he regarded his pursuit of ceramics not as art, but as a “solo, very quiet, very tactile kind of sport”.Brad’s work made up the exhibition organised by British-American artist Thomas Houseago and remain on display until January next year at the Sara Hildén Art Museum in the city of Tampere, in Finland.Speaking at the opening ceremony, Brad described his sculptures as being about "self-reflection".He said: “It’s about where I have gotten it wrong in my relationships, where have I misstepped, where am I complicit.“For me, it was born out of ownership of what I call a radical inventory of self, getting really brutally honest with me and taking account of those I may have hurt, moments I have just gotten wrong.”Unlike Brad, who never underwent any formal training, 64-year-old Nick, who is known for fronting the rock band Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, studied art at a university in Melbourne before deciding to focus on music.Nick.
