Danny Quirk, whose creative handling of anatomical illustration we’ve written about before, is back with more. This time he’s left paper behind in favor of human flesh. Thanks to io9.com for the story, and reader Breshvic for the lead.
Legendary music producer, artist, and underground luminary Kim Fowley grabs a scalpel and joins The Art of Bleeding’s fetish-friendly nursing staff in this doll hospital ether dream of nursery rhymes, anatomical striptease, and decidedly adult doll-women.
We love these embroidered and embellished anatomical pieces created by artist Rachel Harmeyer. If you’re in the Houston area, there’s currently a show of hers up at Backyard Moonshine Art Collective, and she’ll be exhibiting in as well as curating the visual art at the Houston Fringe Festival (August 30 – September 15, 2012.) Thanks to Moshita for sharing these on Tumblr.
Again with our fascination for anatomical fetish fashions…
This link comes from the ever-tantalizing StreetAnatomy blog, describing the work:
This beautiful collection by Jemma Marie McLean, called Skinned Alive the Anatomical Structure is inspired by Leonardo Da Vinci’s anatomical drawings.
Jemma founded Purdy Corsetry after being disappointed by the quality and selection of what she found in New Zealand. She knew with her wealth of experience in sewing and degree in Fashion design from Massey University that she could make the best corsets possible.
Purdy Corsetry is located in Central Wellington, New Zealand. View all her latest work via Facebook!
A couple more exciting interesting images have been circulating through the Tumblr universe.
The first a bustier trotted out at this summer at “The Fashion World of Jean Paul Gaultier: From the Sidewalk to the Catwalk,” at the Montreal’s Musée des Beaux-Arts.
The knitted autopsy is the work of Canadian multimedia artist Cadace Couse and appeared recently on the always-entertaining Street Anatomy.
The new Art of Bleeding video’s finally done! Body Worlds’ master plastinator has wandered into the frozen desert world. You scream, I scream. We all scream, and scream… and scream….
If you’ve noticed a recent drop in the number of postings on this blog, it’s because I’ve been in a dark cave animating the next Art of Bleeding video the last couple months. Promise to get back to more regular posts, and on Monday will be posting the video. Please check back here or our YouTube page. It will make you feel funny, yes it will.
Spanish illustrator and artist Fernando Vicente merges photography and painting in his illustrations for magazines, books, CDs, and film posters, but may be most well known in this country for his anatomically themed “Vanitas” and “Anatomias” painting series — the former dissecting the fashion world with a rather literal touch and the latter taking a similarly literal approach to the machine/body analogy.
Illustrator Danny Quirk apparently took his “Anatomy for Artists” courses very seriously. These intriguing renderings were created while studying at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn.
