Death #2 Obesity


For this second piece I used clear packing tape to create the torso and legs. I filled the torso with fast food wrappings and darkened red jello. the torso is split open and leaking "guts" to add to the disgusting factor as well as show how the obese are bursting. On the table in front of the piece lays a Big Mac (I had a fun time buying my very first Big Mac). I hope pre-mature death is evident in this piece through the cut open torso and the "guts" hanging out.

Death #1 Disembodiment


For my first piece I used clear packing tape to mold my leg and arm. After spray painting them white I used acrylic to draw the vein structure and then an acrylic mixture to paint the skin.
