Along the lines of the work of the rogue taxidermist featured previously on ANTSS, here's some nifty work from Judith G. Klausner: rogue entomologist. Klausner makes unique artifacts out of insect corpses and other materials. Above is a selection from her insect/human hybrid collection: a mounted Eupatorus viscusfacies.Below is a group of praying mantises staged to recreate the beheading of the gardeners under the order of the Queen of Hearts, a scene from Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.

Those are sick and twisted - I love em!
Absinthe,
Would you say these have a better chance of family acceptance than the stuffed flying monkey or a worse chance?
Alas, his web site has been "coming soon" for about 3 years now.. But "Rats, Bats and Vultures" is a guy who does really neat, similar artwork. I've seen him at the Three-Rivers art festival for several years (that we've made). http://www.ratsbatsvultures.com/
Cool bugs! But what I'd really like to see is a recreation using bugs of the scene from "Revenge of the Sith," where the Jedis rescue Anakin and Padme from the Geonosis arana.
