It’s not often that we at ZME Science post art. However, every once in a while, we like to indulge ourselves in the finer pleasures of life – especially when we come across something like this! This is truly the most spectacular art I’ve seen in a while. Travis Bedel aka bedelgeuse is a mixed media artist that specializes on creating anatomical collages from cutouts of vintage etchings and illustrations, combining them into anatomical, botanical, and other biological parts. You can check out his Tumblr here, and if you’re interested in buying some of his works, you can do so at society6 or etsy. All pictures via Tumblr.
