melting zoo

Artist Kawano Takeshi was commissioned by the Italy-based communications research center, Fabrica, to raise awareness about the effects of climate change.


 
 

I haven't been able to find much else out about Kawano Takeshi's work, but these works have gotten a lot of attention. They have a lot of impact as graphics, but I imagine if the sculptures are life-like they'd have much more effect in person. Like going to a melting zoo...

So are the original works sculptures or are these digitally manipulated images/ Graphic Design?
