I came across this artist via looking round on the internet, and his ideas are so similar with mine, with the use of hybrids. He uses parts of animals and combines them to create new creatures, which could result in startlingly beautiful effects or something insanely creepy. His work is actually illegal, as it was found out that he imported dead animals from around the world; some of them are very rare, and so he could face prison. However, the ideas behind his work fascinate me. He himself says, "The joy comes from seeing and experiencing the fantasy of the work but that is coupled with the sadness of the fact that we are destroying all of these beautiful things."
