Infected Mystery - Red

Scott Wilkowski is a Milwaukee-based artist renowned for his innovative contributions to the designer toy scene. With over two decades of experience as a commercial sculptor, Wilkowski has gained recognition for his unique approach to customizing and creating art toys. Wilkowski is best known for his “Infected” series, where he meticulously embeds detailed skeletal structures within popular designer toys, offering a captivating glimpse beneath the surface. This process involves creating translucent resin casts that reveal intricate internal designs, blending elements of anatomy with pop culture Resin casting is a method of plastic casting where a mold is filled with a liquid synthetic resin, which then hardens. It is primarily used for small-scale production like industrial prototypes and dentistry. It can be done by amateur hobbyists with little initial investment, and has been appropriated for the production of collectible toys, models and figures, as well as small-scale jewelry production. The synthetic resin for such processes is a monomer for making a plastic thermosetting polymer. During the setting process, the liquid monomer polymerizes into the polymer, thereby hardening into a solid.
