Korean artist Hyungkoo Lee introduces "Homo Animatus", a series of sculptures that are skeletal representations of familiar cartoon characters. The sculptures are a sinister look at what lies beneath the cartoon skin of beloved characters like Tom & Jerry, Bugs Bunny & Tweety. I'm wondering if this would scare me as a child, but I'm going to say I would be fascinated rather than creeped out.
The skeletons are made of resin, aluminum stick, stainless steel, & oil paint . They are museum quality & they should be featured next to the dinosaurs in The Museum of Natural History.
