Cynthetic 1

Norwegian born artist Christopher Conte combines antique and modern technology to construct his bio-mechanical sculptures. After graduating from Pratt Institute, Chris entered the prosthetics field and began making artificial limbs for amputees in New York City. His personal experience coupled with the influences of DaVinci and Giger give his work a more cybernetic rather than robotic appearance, a merger of the organic and the mechanical.

If you want to see his intricate work in person, his currently on exhibit at Last Rites Gallery, but only till June 29th.
