Demski displays [skulls baring hideous teeth](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/buffalo-skeleton-hard-disk), and suspends them from ceiling hooks in his freaky sculpture series. One of Demski's scary creations features a tiny skeleton springing out from a wooden box, like a Tim Burton-style Jack-in-the-box. Another of these disturbing skeletal artworks seems to be bowing, like a little gentleman. These ghoulish pieces are hard to look away from. These pieces might seem a little morbid at first glance, but they're visually intriguing. These artworks turn death into sculptures to be marvelled at. Some of Demski's skeletons are actually quite charming.
