This "Mutants" series by artist Gad Charney is a statement on mankind's transforming potential--hybrids of animals or the plastic surgery craze. Despite the chalky coloring given to these dissected and reborn plastic toys, I find them somehow endearing. Perhaps it's the knowledge that each of these creatures is completely alone and without brethren or their seeming helplessness due to being headless or of disproportionate build.
"He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby become a monster. And if you gaze for long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you." Friedrich Nietzsche
