Etsy artist sells dissected creations

Artist Emily Stoneking uses knitting to weave guts and wool into knitted creations.

They’re mostly anatomically correct and partially dissected too.

“I take a lot of artistic liberties,” Emily Stoneking says, “I do spend a lot of time researching real anatomical structures, and my guts have evolved over time (they used to be pretty blobby and random). But now, they really look very human, which I have found people tend to gravitate to.”

The real deal is pretty messy and there are not a lot of distinct colors, and I want it to look more like an anatomical illustration (albeit an inaccurate one),” she adds, “I have begun moving toward more human based two-dimensional felted pieces, which I do aim to make very anatomically correct.”

Stoneking mostly knits animals, but also branches out into other art projects such as aliens. All for fun.

Stoneking admits being asked if she’s a scientist and regretfully answers that she has an artist’s mind rather than a scientific one.
