Bloody Art: Artist creates sculptures of himself from his own blood

British artist Marc Quinn (Marc Quinn) has created a truly insane project titled «Self», in which he creates sculptural self-portraits of his own blood. It is a strange and disturbing the artist began to implement the project as early as 1991.

Each week, Marc Quinn visits a doctor, to be drained another pint of their blood for the sake of art





Later this blood was used to fill forms, resulting casts head Mark





Every 5 years, Mark produces a new sculpture of his head from the blood to capture yourself and observe the own aging





How the blood gets the shape of the head of Mark? It's very simple - it is frozen





The artist literally decided to freeze time in his own blood





The result was quite a terrible series of organic sculptures, very accurately reflect the appearance of the author, and made of a material of the organism





No doubt the artist has given new meaning to the concept of "self-portrait»











Since the artist produces his "bloody head" once in 5 years, the new should be expected this year, as the last of his blood sculpture was made in 2011
