Ron Pippin’s Biomechanical Menagerie
In a earlier, simpler time I would describe Ron Pippin’s work as “steampunk” for featuring as it does, bits and baubles comprised of brass and glass, replete with olde looking labels. No! That is wrong. We don’t do that anymore.
That said, Pippin’s work is bad-ass, featuring as it does evil looking machinery bonded to animals, turning them into bizarre and beautiful biomechanoids; cyborg mammals found wandering through steel forests. His portfolio also happens to feature a fair number of complex and mysterious specimen boxes which one can never have too many of.

Reminds me of another artist I frequent: “…it’s not steampunk, dammit.”
I cannot stop staring at that animal-thing’s knees.

Wow! I’ve seen his smaller work at Obsolete in Los Angeles, but these go way beyond!!
