FREEwilliamsburg: Rogue Taxidermist To Unveil E.V.E. on Halloween

In news from Animal, rogue taxidermist and creator of smelly, roadkill art Nate Hill has announced plans to unveil his entire E.V.E. creation on Halloween at The Silent Barn. E.V.E. is the female monster, pictured above, made entirely of dead animal parts sewn together. It's the Ying to his already created Yang.... A.D.A.M (A Dead Animal Man -- image after the jump).

I sat down with Nate Hill's FAQ portion of his website and let him dictate a few questions and answers that I may or may not have had. From Stoproadkill.org's FAQ:

Why are you making E.V.E.?
I wish that I had artistic power that made people wet themselves. But right now, I think I'm just making you puke. But since I want these grand powers, I decided to idolize God because He made all this. Next logical step was to start making human beings.

Do you consider yourself a taxidermist?

Not really because I don't use any of their tradtional techniques. What I do it quite crude. I use different unpreserved raw animal parts and sew them together. Then the finished product with something as big as E.V.E., is displayed in the open air, so it is not preserved in any way, though when stored in a 30 gallon tank of rubbing alcohol. In other words, my work smells.

What is it made out of?

It's a work in progress, but since this weekend E.V.E. contains parts from buffalo, cat, coyote, dog, fish, guinea hen, lobster, octopus, ox, pig, rabbit, and squirrel. I know you're saying, "Buffalo???" I got some buffalo ribs off ebay.

How is it made?

It is sewn together with needle and thread. I use leather needles and strong button grade thread and sometimes fishing line.

How long did it take?

About 6 months.

Will E.V.E. be shown again?

Since my shows involve raw dead animal parts sewn together on the ground, my shows are very rare for obvious reasons.
