Jitish Kallat’s Bone Vehicles

Indian artist Jitish Kallat's giant sculptures bring together the biological and the mechanical on a scale that would make H.R. Giger proud. For his Bone Vehicle series, now on display at Art Stage Singapore and presented by ARNDT, Berlin, Kallat mixes prehistoric fossils with modern machinery in a mashup of epic proportions. Check out the images below.
