SELECTED WORKS & PROPS
At Funky Pumpkins, Halloween is an art form taken to limitless heights. Led by award-winning artist and master sculptor Altin Rizi, we create everything from whimsical, intricately carved Jack-o'-Lanterns to giant sculptures, elaborate theatrical props, large-scale scenes and displays, and immersive Halloween events and experiences.
Born in Tirana, Albania, Altin Rizi is a lifelong visual artist known worldwide for his abstract and figurative expressionist work in mixed media, including paintings, sculptures, mosaics, wood carvings and more.
Beyond his classical practice, Altin spent years creating extreme jack-o’-lanterns and large-scale foam sculptures commissioned for major Halloween productions across North America. Now based in both Athens and Curaçao, he is bringing these two art forms together in a whole new way.
Working across a variety of artistic mediums and techniques -- including a special focus on extreme pumpkin carving and Styrofoam sculpting for large-scale props and showpieces -- we combine traditional artistry with boundless imagination and larger-than-life creativity.
Our work has been commissioned for Halloween events and productions, attractions, and businesses across the U.S. and Canada. We also offer custom commissions, creative production, and consulting services for Halloween events of all sizes.
