Artist Turns His Dead Cat Into Flying Helicopter After It Is Killed !!!!!! by rakumiii(m): 2:56pm On Jun 06, 2012 |
Many animal lovers find it hard to part with their pets when they die. So when cat Orville, named after the famous aviator Orville Wright, was run over by a car, his artist owner decided to turn him into a permanent piece of artwork as the ultimate tribute by transforming him into a flying helicopter. Dutch artist Bart Jansen first stuffed Orville before teaming up with radio control helicopter flyer Arjen Beltman to build a specially-designed flying mechanism to attach to the cat. Paws for thought: Cat Orville was turned into a helicopter by his artist owner Bart Jansen, pictured right,after he was run over by a car Flying high: Bart Jensen has dubbed his cat art The Orvillecopter Moving art: The Orvillecopter is on display in a gallery during at the Kunstrai art festival in Amsterdam Cat overhead: Radio control helicopter flyer Arjen Beltman, pictured back right, controls The Orvillecopter Jansen said the Orvillecopter is 'half cat, half machine', and part of a visual art project to pay tribute to his cat Orville. Jansen, part of the art cooperative Generaal Pardon, said: 'After a period of mourning he received his propellers posthumously.' He added that Orville will soon be 'flying with the birds' stating: 'Oh how he loved birds. He will receive more powerful engines and larger props for his birthday. So this hopping will soon change into steady flight.' Read more: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2154283/Cats-away-Artist-turns-dead-pet-flying-helicopter-killed-car.html#ixzz1x1NMuujR
