do you think it's okay to kill animals for art?

i do not support it, but it's not different than what society already does. people kill animals for fashion. shoes, belts, coats, ect. people kill animals for meat. these things are 'okay'. not only okay, but something people want. people hunt for sport then go stuffing the bodies and heads of animals to hang them on a wall.

we don't need meat to live. we don't have to wear real fur, you could wear faux fur...none of them are necessary. you could live without meat. art isn't necessary to live. however, she could of used a different way to get her point across, such as painting,

if she killed any animal but 'cute fluffy things' would anyone even care? if she used spiders, ants, roaches, i doubt anyone would think there was even an issue.

yes anything can be art...a museam in australia showed a rotting cow cut in half... in germany there are preseved humans with their internal organs spilling out of their abdomen... and then art can be simple like a can of soup or abstract

In the "art" you mentioned...if that's what you want to call it ... The animals/humans were dead already (I am still against it), this artist's work is horrible because she KILLED the animals for it. There is nothing to justify the murder she committed.

Killing animals for clothing: This is fine. Clothing is a necessity. We need it for warmth.

There are synthetic animal materials such as "pleather" and "faux fur" that are exactly like the real thing...without all of the murder of course....it is hypocritical to say it's okay to kill animals for clothing and not for art.

Self-expression by means of killing an animal=sick/insane/morbid/physchotic/unstable/evil/loony... need I go on? Then again, opinions hardly matter anymore. Loonies will be loonies.

There's the healthy way of expressing ourselves and then there is the sick, unhealthy way.

Exactly.
