Sex dolls recycled into wearable art


Vice recently featured works by Dutch artist Sander Reijgers, who "has created a number of wearable items – including jackets, gloves and hats – by mixing old, cut-up bits of sex dolls with other bits of clothing from big sportswear brands like Nike and Reebok, so you stay stylish while creeping people out."



Here is what he says the art represents:
"... the woman is a product nowadays – they must be attractive and seductive. For example, in advertising, a carton of milk has to be sold with a horny-looking or half naked woman. The woman is subordinate and the man is dominant. I use those roles and imagery in my work."
Those aren't pockets...

He says his mother helps him sew the designs.

    The 'best' or worst is the mashed potato mix... Yup, that's right.
