Teddy Bear Skulls

Stephanie Metz has made some cute & cuddly teddy skulls with felt. This is her blag, sorry, her artist statement about the project: "A pseudo-scientific study of the morphology of skulls: the form and structures that differentiate one breed from another and give a sense of the story of the individual. My approach is to research, document, present, and interpret evidence in a formal manner. My subject species is the teddy bear: a creature made by humans (and made ‘alive’ by imagination) whose morphological history is tied to social trends." Umm, ok, let's just say that they look "really cool" instead.

Thanks to Lloyda Valencia for the info!
