Rune Olsen is using a lot of masking tape. His current show at the Museum of Sex features his detailed masking tape sculptures of animals mating.

I had the pleasure of photographing Ms. In Sook Kim as she was photographing for an upcoming piece she is doing for the New York TImes Magazine. For this shoot, I tried to be a fly on the wall and photograph her as she put together one of her massive endeavors.
