The Paleontology of Chris Wildrick Is Overrated: Skin & Bones 2, performed 2008-present at multiple occasions in Ithaca and Syracuse, NY
As a follow-up to Skin & Bones, where he asked people to draw the exterior of dinosaurs on top of drawings of dinosaur skeletons, Chris here asks people to sculpt the exterior of dinosaurs on top of plastic dinosaur skeletons.
These sculptures will be analyzed for morphological tendencies, thus bringing to light people's ideas about what dinosaurs looked like--or, alternatively, why people don't really care what dinosaurs actually looked like, so much as they like to imagine their own verisons.
Each sculpture so far can be seen here:
