Check out this stylish beaver at the Humboldt Forum museum in Berlin. It’s a sculpture by Akihiro Higuchi. Definitely the best-dressed beaver I’ve seen in a while.

Akihiro Higuchi, Japanese, b. 1969.
“Higuchi’s models are not real animals. Instead, they are animal-shaped molds made from urethane foam (a material commonly used in modern taxidermy). Therefore, strictly speaking, Higuchi’s art is not simply about animals but rather about human behaviour. His sculptures illustrate excessive love of animals, the inclination to humanise them and the guilty conscience when using animals as food, for clothing or other purposes.
Parallels to the Japanese pictorial tradition of mitate, in which historical events and individuals (fictional and non-fictional) are juxtaposed into the same image to humorous effect, are also present in Higuchi’s art. His stag beetles are a good example of this reference to tradition. Higuchi paints their shells with coats of arms and emblems that resemble those of old Samurai clans. As a result, the insect’s body gains an uncanny resemblance to the distinct armors worn by the warriors back in the day. Nature serves as a canvas for Higuchi.”
