Erik Boker: Product Dissections

Continuing with our theme of craftiness today, here are some of Erik Boker's product dissections.

From Boker's project statement:

"I am interested in the notions of art as commercial product, art as artifact, and the nature of the museum, and I continue to explore our understanding of their roles, and the inherent beauty, humor, and horror that lies within them."

Horror is Aquafresh's thorax, spread wide for all to see.

Nice, like these images.


Excellent dissection technique. They appear almost alive... I mean dead.

Kenji Toma did a shoot like this for Mass Appeal a few years back. He dissected a bunch of classic Nike's a la biology lab. complete with pins and some great props.

Those are very interesting images.

In fact, we should hail discount ed hardy for popularizing and blending the tattoo art into everyday clothing.
