Japanese artist Motoi Yamamoto's preferred artistic medium is salt, and he built this fairly tall staircase made out of salt bricks not only due to his preference of medium, but to signify loss and ruin, as the staircase crumbles when faced with a simulated earthquake.

Created by Jessica Wohl, the above staircase covered in synthetic human hair is on display at the Mountainaire Hotel in Hot Springs, Akansas. Art, you know? A few more somewhat unsettling pictures after the break.
