Dimitri Tsykalov is probably more well-known for his meat masks than he is for his ‘Wooden Organs.’ These organs are all made out of wood, giving them a dried-up and shriveled appearance.

The level of quality in Dimitri Tsykalov’s ‘Wooden Organs’ is truly impressive. Reconstructing a human heart or brain is no easy task using a pen or pencil, but creating it out of wood is a whole other feat entirely.
