Philip Watts Spine Staircase

Now I was blown away when I saw this. Philip Watts is a designer who specialises in metal, wood and glass, from full work surfaces to furniture. But there was one masterpiece I could not resist posting, his bespoke sculptural staircase in the style of a spine.

Literally dripping with detail, this master piece has been made specially for this lucky persons home.

Philip Watts Design is based in Nottingham, UK.

Ivan Ebel

Swiss visual artist Ivan Ebel looks like he’s been dabbling with the anatomical designs of the human body.

His paintings and illustrations reflect the representation of the body and the symbolic notation of the body.

Fernando Vicente Vanitas

Holy mother of anatomical beauty, this is one for the bookmarks button.

Fernando Vicente is the artist behind these dissected figures.

And if you have a look at his blog, it seems that the images are loved so much they have become tattoos.

Now, I know this amazing artist had featured a few times on Street Anatomy before (Bionic Women and Fernando Vincente: Vanitas) but I just thought I had to bring him up again with a few personal favourites.

Broken Sundowns

Photographer Amy Hastlehurst caught my attention. Just being 16, her photography and portraits are an absolute treasure to see. She mentions on her flickr account that she thinks “too many people look at themselves and don’t see what lies underneath their skin” and would like to continue this series of anatomy styled images.

I got in touch with the artist, a lovely girl at that, and this is what she said:

These photographs were inspired by my total detachment, I was sitting in class one day and looking down at my hands. I had wondered what was underneath my skin. I began to trace my blue veins up my arm, and when I got home redrew over it darker and took a series of photographs. I suppose this is where the idea came from, I wanted to bring the reality of our being to the surface, that we are not only skin yet a complex network of bones and flesh and organs. It also arose from my interest in the human body.
