Artist Stitches Meat to Make Creepy Teddy Bear
Teddy Bears are meant to be cute, cuddly, and when you’re done with them, you friggin bite their heads off and call it a meal. Artist Victor Ivanov stitched together chicken skin to make the creepy teddy bear that for all intent could follow the path of Frankenstein’s monster.

We are not exactly sure how good gold is at wiping ass, but when we’re spending $1.3 million on a toilet paper roll, it better leave the ass clean and sparkling.

Artist Works by Squirting Paint From His Eyes
Artist Leandro Granato makes his tear ducts do art. The process starts with him squirting some paint up his nose, and then squirting it out through his eyes.

To ensure that the squirting paint doesn’t damage his eyes, he created a “special formula” that goes easy on the eyeballs.
