Patricia Piccinini




Patricia Piccinini is a world famous Australian artists. Her breakthrough moment was when she represented Australia at the Venice Biennale. Piccinini creates sculptures, videos, drawings, installations, and more. Her work is all very intellectual-exploring issues such as bioethics, bio-technologies, consumer culture, and the environment. I'm not going to lie- some of her sculptures that mix humans and animals are very grotesque- but they are incredibly creative and realistic. She creates her sculptures out of silicone, fiberglass, human hair, leather, plywood, clothing, nylon, plastic, wool, polyester, bronze, and much more.
