We thought it was about time we featured a home-grown Australian artist here on So Bad So Good and what better individual to focus on this week than innovative artist & sculptor Freya Jobbins?

Jobbins states that she's been influenced by firstly Giuseppe Arcimboldo, the Italian painter best known for creating imaginative portrait heads made entirely of such objects as fruits, vegetables, flowers & fish.Secondly by Gunther von Hagens the controversial German anatomist who invented the technique for preserving biological tissue specimens called 'plastination'.
