He repeatedly links the attractive with the repulsive, creating work that holds within it inherent contradictions- one does not know whether to stare, be seduced, or to look away. -wiki

Extinct Birds made from fast food chicken bones is a series created by Chelsea-based artist Christy Rupp. The entire project took four years to make including collecting the bones which was only the beginning. She had to boil, dry and bleach the bones before painting them with sealant. Side note: Rupp is a vegetarian so she’s had to ask other people to save their bones for her. She even put an ad in the county shopper requesting for people to save their bones for her. Holy Moly!

Dog Portrait by artist Joel Brochu. He’s glued 221,184 sprinkles ranging from six different colors (red, orange, green, blue, black, and white) to recreate Shingo Uchiyama’s photo of a beagle.
Meticulously placed by hand using jewelry tweezers, the sprinkles adhere to the board with the help of double sided tape and a thin layer of glue. At a distance of 16 feet, the sprinkles blur, tricking the human eye into believing that it is looking at a large photograph. Only when you closely examine the work do you realize that it has been created entirely with tiny spheres of candy. -Joel Brochu
