About this product

Product Information

Hidden away in a storage closet deep within the bowels of Texas State Mental Hospital languished a forgotten but incredibly rare collection. A unique and exceptional assortment of extremely rare, malformed or damaged human brains preserved in jars of formaldehyde. Decades after they were hidden away, in 2013 photographer Adam Voorhes discovered the brains and became obsessed with documenting them.
