Making Sculptures out of Octopus
The Ukrainian artist Zoia Skoropadenko makes controversial art works out of octopus. She shapes pieces of the undersea creatures into human torsos before capturing them on canvas. When the European Council invited her to Strasbourg, they were horrified by her `Torso' collection and wanted to take it down. The Â鶹ÊÓƵAV's Nicki Paxman has been to see them and meet the artist.
