Qwerl the Squirrel thinks that ink is real. Despite the many visits to "Health professionals", Krell is deluded that art can be made by something or someone who isn't of lunar origin. Might also have friends that are bottles of water with googly eyes.

Body Worlds – Dr Gunther von Hagens
German anatomist Dr Gunther von Hagens has become internationally known for his ability to turn real human bodies into statues. He does this through a technique which he invented and which he calls ‘plastination’. The procedure involves injecting liquid plastic solution into the dead body of a volunteer, the solution then hardens preserving the cadavers entirely. Whilst Von Hagens originally intended his plastinated bodies to be used for the study of anatomy only, but over the years his ‘sculptures’ have become increasingly artistic. Most recently a new body slicing technique has been used to create wafer-thin cross sections of the bodies. Von Hagens’ first exhibition of palatinate bodies was in 1995, in Japan. Two years later he launched the ‘Body Worlds’ exhibition. Subsequent Body Worlds exhibitions have toured the world, attracting over 26 million visitors and sparking outrage from certain religious groups.

From the very start, Von Hagens and his work have been at the center of ethical, spiritual and legal debate. In 2002 he performed an autopsy live on British television despite being warned by Her Majesty's Inspector of Anatomy that it would be considered a criminal act. Because of the controversial nature of his work he is said to work out of a secret laboratory, the entrance to which is concealed by a movable staircase.
