In 1993, a convicted murderer was executed.  His body was given to science, segmented, and photographed for medical research.  In 2011, we used photographer to put it back together.

12:31 is a series of photographs concepted by Croix Gagnon and photographed by Frank Schott.  The process of making these haunting images is similar to creating the long-exposure light paintings we’ve all seen become popular over the past few years. The images Croix and Frank managed to capture through this process are other worldly!

The Process:
An animation of the sequence of 1,871 male cadaver slices from the Visible Human Project was created.  This animation was then played full screen on a laptop and moved through a dark environment while being photographed. The result is a series of ghostly misshapen images of the Visible Human cadaver in space.

So I’m pleased as punch to see her doing some anatomical art! She is definitely an artist to keep your eye on, head on over to her site and see what other illustrations she has cooking.

Noticed this anatomical heart pasteup by street artist NACO while driving through the artsy Pilsen neighborhood in Chicago.  He’s also been putting up Ninja Turtle pasteups around the city, which is awesome.
