About
‘We are unfashioned creatures, but half made up’ – Mary Shelley, Frankenstein
What will happen after humans are extinct and robots are no longer functioning? What on earth will evolve? Keith Bloody Mary imagines a world where nature claims back the planet, and hybrid creatures grow from the things our species leaves behind.
Keith Bloody Mary uses photo-collage to create humorous and often ridiculous pieces of work. Using only images from found magazines and cut and paste techniques, Keith Bloody Mary pieces together new life forms, like a 21st Century Dr Frankenstein.
