Art by Stefan Gross Lives Up to His Name

Wow. I don’t even know how I found this utterly disgusting toy art, but once I saw it, I feel compelled to traumatize everyone else.

It’s the kind of of thing that once you see it, you can’t un-see it.

I think its mostly because of the disturbing juxtaposition of cute, fun toys and horrid, bubbly, clumpy vomit, head wounds and skin disorders.

It’s the twisted toy art of Stefan Gross. These pieces were part of a show called (The Precarious Future of) Sustainable Trash. (He has more abstract and “pretty” stuff too, but no way I’m gonna show you that.)

I know these are all custom pieces for a gallery exhibit, but I’m sure there would be an audience for this stuff if these toys were actually produced. We can only hope.
