Jason Freeny
INSIDE OUT, OUTSIDE IN
Have you ever played with this toy?
How about this one?
Have you ever wondered what they looked like on the inside?
Artist Jason Freeny has!
He makes a living imagining what your most popular toys would look like on the inside, if they were actually living creatures!
So this is how he sees
Mr. Potato Head.
And this is how he sees Hello Kitty.
The way Jason sees the world, even your favorite candy has a skeleton.
His mini sculptures are of
the famous cartoons and
toys we grew up
with.
Maybe you recognize this fella?
Maybe you’ve played with her before?
Freeny twists the outcome of his
subjects by making them look like old school 8th
grade science posters.
Even baby dolls have skeletons and organs.
He is inspired by video games.
TV Commercials
Cartoons
Children's Books
And popular movies
Seeing his work is like watching an actual hospital surgery or important experiment.
Jason Freeny was named "Break Through Artist" of 2011!
Jason lives and works in New York City, where he sells the toys he creates.
His latest toy is called the Brain Cube, a puzzle similar to the Rubik’s Cube.
