Sandra Yagi has a show opening up on January 12th at the Bert Green Fine Art Gallery in Los Angeles.

I like her “Dancing With the Stars” series of conjoined dancing skeletons, perhaps because it’s the only time I’ve seen a modicum of whimsy in this otherwise morbid, macabre subject matter.

The Anatomicals are also wonderful.

She has some clever Mutant Creatures as well.

From the artist statement:
Contemporary culture, human folly and an obsessive curiosity for the macabre provide the fuel for my subject matter. My work is inspired by the natural sciences as well as by the classical drawing techniques of the old masters, including anatomical studies by artists such as Andreas Vesalius and Bernhard Siegfried Albinus. My recent paintings incorporate anatomical imagery to explore the human psychological condition, such as cutaway skulls portraying our basic human drives and the thin veneer of humanity overlaying our animal nature.

Many more works at the gallery.
