REUTERS/Kim Kyung-HoonFeb 6 (Reuters) - A Japanese DJ has found a new calling making freaky flesh-like accessories such as severed finger ink stamps, pendants with blinking eyes and purses with gaping mouths and stubble, inspired by horror movie special effects. "Once people learnt that it's an artwork with some specific function, they started saying that it's cute and interesting." He draws the designs by hand before a Tokyo studio called Amazing Studio JUR takes up to two months to turn the concept into reality. American rapper Lil Yachty posted a video of himself clutching one of his blinking balls on social media in 2021.
