When you open your fridge and see funny-colored meat, it’s usually time to throw it away.
For 28 year-old Iori Tomita, however, that’s probably his work.
The Japanese artist has made a career out of transforming discarded carcasses from butchers or anywhere he finds them, into glowing artworks. Over five thousand critters have undergone a chemical process to strip them down to the toughest part of their remains before dying them according to the strength of those pieces.
The end result, a very beautiful, if slightly bizzare, testiment to natural engineering genius. Iori has become something of a celebity; displaying his works world wide. But his job is far from easy; each piece takes at least a few weeks to create and some of the largest can take up to a year
