One man’s art is another man’s felony. Miami artist Enrique Gomez De Molina learned that the hard way.
De Molina, known for taxidermy sculptures that combine the bodies of different animals to form horrific demon hybrids, has pleaded guilty to illegally importing parts of endangered species, including the carcasses of a slow loris and a mouse deer from Indonesia.
He faces as much as five years in prison and a $250,000 fine at his March 2 sentencing.
