Iori Tomita - Colourful Specimens

I came across these images on the website Lost At E Minor (which by the way is a brilliant website for creative inspiration and just for a good old nosey around too ) and was so amazed by them i felt i had to share them on here :) Iori Tomita creates these translucent and vividly coloured creatures by preserving and dying animal skeletons in an array of crazy chemicals. The result is quite astounding, little works of art that don't quite seem to belong on thi planet - but they do!
