Rogue Taxidermists

Today I stumbled upon the Rogue Taxidermy Sculptress Sarina Brewer's facebook fan page and immediately became fixated. I soon found out she is a co-founder of MART (Minnesota Association of Rogue Taxidermy), which has an interesting list of members that do all different kinds of freakish taxidermy as a controversial art-form.

These members have taken the campy feeling out of their stuffed carcass by creating new beings placed in ironic habits and giving them characteristics that are not usually attributed to their breed.

My personal favorites:






Side show artist Sarina Brewer






The aggressively gory Scott Bibus






Hybrid specialist MF Amazing






Doll master Esther Verschoor







Memento Mori taxidermist and jeweler Loved to Death






Diabolical Dioramist Mirmy Winn














I could go on.. but I think you should click on every link and explore these resurrected curiosities.
