Anyone seen this before? Or know who made it? I got it on on ebay and I thought it would look cool on a desk or on the fireplace mantle.

Reminds me of something Henry Moore would do.

With the best will in the world I don't think Henry Moore's repuation as (arguably) greatest sculptor of the 20th century and (certainly) most valuable is based on anything like this. I'm fairly sure I've seen one of these before though (therefore manufactured) and guess its loosely based on Poussin's Dance to the Music of Time

custody battle
You see a happy family, I see a couple ripping their kid in half! Actually, the placement of the feet isn't quite right for that...maybe the kid's getting sucked away by a tornado? Whether that'd make them happy or not I can't say.
