Tattooed Bananas

Using nothing more than a push pin and a banana — artist Phil Hansen creates beautiful works of art. Using a technique inspired by pointillism and old-school tattooing, Hansen punctures the banana’s skin with strategically placed pin holes. The peel’s tendency to turn brown then brings the art to life — albeit short-lived, before the whole banana rots over.
