THE ROGUE REVOLUTION ~

Taxidermy Art; from Counterculture to Pop Culture

October 2021 marks the 17-year anniversary of the birth of a genre of pop-surrealist art dubbed "Rogue Taxidermy". The genre was the brainchild of Sarina Brewer and her two colleagues, Scott Bibus and Robert Marbury. Together the trio spearheaded an art movement that continues to gain momentum exponentially. Since its inception the genre has proven to be as controversial as it is contagious; images of this unique variety of work now saturate every corner of the internet. And it started a revolution.

The introduction of Rogue Taxidermy created a trend in the art world that changed the perception and assumptions about taxidermy, not only in galleries, but also in contemporary aesthetics. Its presence in galleries has carried over into popular culture, as attested to by the countless home decor magazines and shop window displays that now include taxidermy elements. The trio's experimental and unorthodox use of taxidermy materials, coupled with their ethical reframing of them,  jump-started a taxidermy revival in North America and laid the foundation for what has since exploded into a global phenomenon. Taxidermy is now enjoying a universal level of popularity that it hasn't experienced since the Victorian era.

Being a robotkin is so bonkers because you can get euphoria from things like listening to computer sounds or saying shit like “beep boop, bitches!”

Like, yes, I am stuck in this meat sack instead of a SICK-ASS ROBOTIC FORM, but hey! At least I get to pretend to be a computer all I want!

Also, pro tip: drawing robotic joints over your real ones is SUPER FUN. Even if you’re not a robotkin, I’d recommend it for drawing practice. :]_
