Wild Things

 
 
Artist Troy Emery creates amazing sculptures by covering taxidermy foam bodies with felt, crystals, glitter and bright polyester pom poms. These non-descriptive predator animals with their playfully colourful pelts become hyper exotic specimens in a menagerie of art / animal objects.

  2. fun, original, however...I would like it better if he actually used junk, ie. upcycled some of the stuff cramming the landfills and second hand shops and turned that into art instead of buying retail and encouraging more manufacturing. cf. the film Manufactured Landscapes you will never look at our times the same again
