In the name of art, Andrew Krasnow is making sculptures and lampshades out of human skin. He is constantly being compared to serial killers and Nazi’s, either way he has gotten a lot of attention for making art out of human skin. You may be asking yourself, how does he obtain the skin?….
“Using skins from white men who donated their bodies to medical science, he has created freak versions of mundane items including flags, boots and maps of America – in effect using skin like leather. His work, he says, is a commentary on human cruelty and America’s ethics and morality.”
He has a new show that will be opening in July in London, so book your ticket now.
