In his body part painting collection called Patchwork Hotel, artist Till Rabus creates a struggling wrestling match between different misplaced limbs.

His [monstrous masterpieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jeffrey-deitch-art-gallery) feature bodies that are a [confusing cluster](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fragmenti) of fleshy legs and arms, wearing nothing but fishnet tights and heels. The sight is simultaneously erotic yet also disturbing as the parts combine into a mutated figure that is either trying to make love to itself or is in a constant battle with itself. Either way, the imagery is action-packed and risque, definitely distracting yet modestly shying away from any outright inappropriate displays.

The body part painting pieces by Till Rabus demonstrate a sincere passion for female body parts, yet also embody a frustrated sense of unfulfilled desire.
