Body Extension. Making the normal better, weird and artful.

The first 13 images are body extension.
there is no information regarding these pictures but it is evident that these works were created by students from some university or college. and this show of work has a few good examples of body extension. Image 11 is particularly interesting as it shows an extension of the arm, impractical but nether the less viable as an extension. I guess practicality and art should not always mix. But for me an element of practicality should have always been a section to cover as I intended this to be the amour of the post apocalyptic future and having very impractical armor would have resulted in a fast death of the wearer and thus defeating one of it's two main functions.
This for me would be unacceptable, so practicality was always a key factor.
