Skulls of Frodo Mikkelsen

Categories: World

Danish artist Frodo Mikkelsen creates amazing miniature worlds that remind viewers of the frailty of life and the mortality of all living things. No wonder, because Frodo works with nothing but ... skulls! Houses, vans, landscapes, lighthouses "grow" on the turtles. Mikkelsen's work seems to remind us of the beauty of the world and our fear of loss.
