"We have assembled objects in the form of a human figure, objects of all types that we found here each day and selected for their form and color, to obtain a familial nucleus that is the unity through which the individual forms itself and develops its ability to live and realize itself in the world."

I love the dog sculpture. That and the human figure remind me of those medical displays that take the skin off of real humans and make them plastic, only the veins and internal organs are made out of recycled electronics and things.

Cool. Reminds me of Al Wadzinski.

The 'human figure' is remarkable. This is the sort of art I can connect with. Thanks, unliteral!

I really like this, thanks for posting. It does seem similar to those plasticised bodies - less creepy, but more guilt-inducing.
