These are really cool. The originals are maybe smaller than they appear on my screen, so much detail.

Looks like they're all from 2019. Amazing vision and drive. I'd like to see 3D animation capture this.

Hilariously morbid. Beautiful textures. Strange-ass sense of perspective. 9/9, would be weirded out again.

The hyperrealistic paper boxes on soft, painterly backgrounds, the skeletons a bit cartoonish and softer-edged, but with light and shadow so perfect... I keep feeling uncertain. Is it a painting? A diorama? A painting of a diorama? A heavily painted diorama? I keep zooming in, trying to reassure my brain that it’s seeing something comprehensible.
