In A New Take On The Selfie, This Artist Casts His Own Dead Body

An artist by the name of Jeremy Millar is freaking out art lovers en masse with his piece “Self-Portrait as a Drowned Man (The Willows),” now showing at Turner Contemporary in England. That’s because the unorthodox self-portrait is an extremely lifelike cast of the artist’s own pale and mutilated body, lying face down on the gallery floor. And we didn’t think selfies could get much more horrific than the dreaded duck face.

Well, Paul McCarthy’s naked self-portrait has officially been forced out of its position at the top of the unsettling pyramid. Congratulations, Jeremy.
