Joanneke Meester’s Skin Gun.

eesh. And here I thought, when I first saw the image without reading about it, “ooh a pizza gun”

yuck. but um, yay art and all that.

That’s not cool. strange but true. The skin will rot soon after a few hours unless he knows how to preserve it. I still doubt that he could do that!

How Cronenberg. Anyone else thinking eXistenZ?

eugh

That’s just so weird! Keeping a dead skin tissue just to be a gun? Eeek. At first, I thought it was a pizza-baked gun, but then, it turns out to be someone’s skin… hmm… odd!

you know that would definitely scare away more criminals than perhaps a real gun

i wont be impressed untill i see a foreskin gun.
stupid artists

I was lyk…PIZZAAAA then i read “skin” and i’m lyk -_- ew.

Where’s the trigger?

ummmm… O.K. now lets make a gun out of teeth… or bone.

I’ve seen a gun made of bone. A man had his wife’s femur shaved to form the grip of a pistol (crazy old German man)

i want one.

man ive seen some crazy sh-t on the internet but a SKIN GUN??!?! What the hell was she thinking?>

now this is just plain sick, i have news for the artist okay, y not do som finger painting, its clean an fun and involves absolutly no body mutilation or convulsion at all, exept maybe if they r somone elses severed fingers

Wow..WTF…

W.T.F.

I’ve heard of a skin flute before, but come on, this is just too much!

where do you people keep seeing pizza i think ur all nuts

This is very Joel-Peter Witkin. He is the ‘artist’ who uses real cadavers to create still life. Very still ife that is!!!! Go ahead check out his stuff here:

eerraa….errraa….eeerraaa…..uh…..hmmmmm….that looks like……why would ne1….uhh….ppl goin….why, why, why would u cut out 8inc of ur skin to do that…..OMFG…WHY!!!!!!!!i c no point

Looks like we’re having stuffed shells tonight!

YAY!! i wanna go to vagas and eat pizza gun pockets!! Wouldn’t mind some of that skin either.

Whose skin is that?

”It puts the lotion on it’s skin, or it gets the hose again…”

thats just gross.

by the way it has hair on it !!!!!

Please tell me that she is not wasting publicly funded dollars on this garbage. My taxes pay for crap like this? I like my art free, and my artists starving…If you had real talent, you be painting something.

Human skin + moron = moron with skin gun.

What do the two have in common?

Does it shoot blood? now that would be cool otherwise it’s just some sorry ass attempt for someone with no talent to play at being an artist. Come on all you modern art folks are a bit heavy with the pretense and yeah you have some secret deep meaningful reason for making that but it’s just gross and useless arts and crafts crap. I’m all about joel peter whitkins but that’s due to his skill at setting a mood and creating things that shock our baseline of reality. This on the other hand isn’t art…It doesn’t even look well made. Imo art =beauty, skill, mood or emotional content this lacks all of those. Go back to needlepoint.

The saddest part is – while an artist making great sacrifices for good art can be powerfuly moving and life changing for the people who get it, this really isn’t even good art.

What is she saying? Guns are bad because… uh… there’s nothing clever here at all to work with.

She is getting attention though. Maybe that’s the point.

i did this in 2002…wtf??

I dont understand what it’s supposed to symbolise. Maybe something to do with guns being evil or something i dont know.

Weird Though!

I wish someone made an eyeball gun that would be sick!

dont do drugs.

what — is the problem with these people.

People are idiots these days…and that’s not art by any means.

I would pay someone loads of cash to eat it.

WTF??? Thats just wrong

grosss….that is demented

WOW I LOVE IT KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK LOVE YOUR STYLE

hmm…. gun runners need a cut of this piece of business

I’m not easily repulsed, but that is just sick.

the artist made some statement…………..not.
but it is kind of impressive. hahaha EW
