Playing with different angles of the piece in my previous post #SchlagmetalTaxidermy #SilverSquirrel

Give a gift of galactic proportions. Art.

All work 10% now through December 24th

“Captain’s log, stardate 12.17.2023. Space… the final frontier… These are the voyages of rogue taxidermy. My 25-year-old mission: to explore strange new works. To seek out new life via new amalgamations. To boldly go where no man has gone before”

TITLE: You Have a Wonderful Future Behind You MATERIALS: Tanned and dehaired squirrel hide covered with schlagmetal (body), recycled platinum mink remnants (tail), mirrored stainless steel marbles (eyes), nickel-plated bank pins (rivets), antique jewelry box feet, vintage Swarovski cut crystal acorn, deco-style black lacquer wood plinth, artificial turf

One of my taxidermy sculptures that recently landed at Lovetts Gallery in Tulsa. The theme for this particular exhibition was “Area 51”. I enjoy the challenge of coming up with concepts that fit into themed shows and one pushed taxidermy to the outer limits. This piece was inspired by a theory that suggests extraterrestrials are time traveling humans from Earth’s future. No one can predict the future, but there are inevitabilities in the foreseeable. More flora and fauna will go extinct. Technology will increasingly replace organic processes. Our world will slowly fill up with artificially created plants. Artificially created animals. Artificial environments. Artificial intelligence. Artificial everything. After we are gone, there will only be monuments to what once was. This piece is intended not only to evoke the feeling of a monument, but also to mimic a trophy; a satirical award for our stellar stewardship of the planet.

                                                                           My most recent taxidermy sculpture just landed at Lovetts Fine Art gallery in Tulsa. The theme for their October exhibition this year was “Area 51”. I enjoy the challenge of coming up with concepts that fit into themed shows; this one pushed taxidermy to the outer limits. This piece was inspired by a theory that suggests extraterrestrial visitors are time traveling humans from the future. No one can predict the future, but there are inevitabilities in the foreseeable. More flora and fauna will go extinct. Technology will increasingly replace organic processes. Our world will slowly fill up with artificially created plants, artificially created animals, artificial environments, artificial intelligence, artificial companions, artificial workforce, artificial everything. After we are gone, there will only be monuments to what once was. This piece is intended not only to evoke the feeling of a monument, but also to mimic a trophy; a satirical award for our stellar stewardship of the planet.
