Rein Vollenga's sculptures are [wearable works of art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sculptural-jewelry-piece). The intense and bizarre pieces are meant to enhance your anatomy and can be worn as lavish accessories or put on display as decorative art pieces.

Rein Vollenga is a former hair dresser known for his exceptional and exaggerated sculptures. His inspiration for his latest installment of [wearable sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vesper-collection) came from weapons and props used in the film 'Planet Terror.' The idea is for the conceptual pieces to be fierce and embrace the sensuality of the human body. Each piece is provocative, edgy and thought-provoking.

His work is self-taught and offers insight into the world of [conceptual art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/folded-echoes). Rein Vollenga's sculptures are visually extraordinary and full of intensity.
