tontonz1 Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 The melted doll faces are disturbing enough. Still...would be pretty fascinating to see these in person. Don't think I'd give'm money though. “A kind of you“, a disturbing series about the world of street monkeys in the city of Jakarta, created by the Finnish photographer Perttu Saska. Trained and dressed as humans to ask for money to passersby, as is an old Asian tradition, these monkeys have now become real objects, even wearing doll heads to accent mimicry, turning them into real living toys… A cruel phenomenon that leaves a strong sense of unease…" \ http://www.ufunk.net/en/photos/street-apes-jakarta/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doublename Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 I read that thread title and thought this was about to get super racist. As a pet owner, it's probably hypocritical of me to hate those photos as much I do, but they turn my stomach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ambermonk Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 the chains don't make this cool at all I was gonna say, the fact that the primates are chained up is more disturbing than the masks they wear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Friendly Foil Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 Yea, and the best part is no one is forcing you to buy that meat. Being able to choose is sweet. But let's not derail this. This thread is about monkeys in chains. Which is totally sweet because reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leon Sumbitches Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Nah, the whole thing is freaky as fuck, both in terms of uncanny-valley tiny doll people and animal cruelty. Still fascinating though, although I'm not sure I'd be able to handle a trip down the street in Jakarta while stoned. Or ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
