Cool for some, freaky for others

This artist has created false eyelashed using the legs of flys. Gross? Cool? Edgy? I personally would not like to have insect parts anywhere near me, let alone my eyes!
The image makes an impact for sure. Long, lushious eye lashed are a global standard for beauty. Using insect legs, which are incredibly ugly and creepy to create the image of beautiful lashes is very interesting. What message is the artist sending by doing this?
The same artist has created images in a collection called
Mouth Eyes.   The eyes are the window to the soul and when we look at someone, their eyes are the main focus. By using mouths instead of eyes, the artist may be saying that the words they speak are over shadowing their eyes, covering the true essecense of that figure.  All kinds of weird and crazy things can be done using photoshop.

Peacock Feather Eyelash Jewelry - False Eyelashes - Made to order
These are false eyelashes made from feathers with cool looking eye makeup to match.
 Makeup artistry along with photoshop can create a great number of disturbing and cool looking images. Sometimes it may be easier to just photoshop things, but it doesn't make as big of a statement or impact if the image is true to it's form.
