When it comes to making art, the medium an artist chooses to express themselves with makes all the difference. That's why it's so gloriously fitting that this portrait of Mark Zuckerberg is made of stinky poopy.

When it comes to making art, the medium an artist chooses to express themselves with makes all the difference.

That's why it's so gloriously fitting that this portrait of Mark Zuckerberg is made of stinky poopy.

According to KATSU, the New York street artist who composed the beauty himself, Mark Zuckerberg is not a person to idolize. Since he saw The Social Network, KATSU thought the Facebook founder should be ridiculed rather than idolized, and has thus has launched a (poop) smear campaign against the famous hoodie-wearing multizillionaire.

KATSU made his first jab at Markie Mark back in April when he plastering New York City with images of Zuckerberg with a black eye … not exactly controversial stuff, but attack-y nonetheless. His second punch, however, was way dirtier and found him eating a day's worth of Thai food and shitting into a takeout container, hellbent on using his feces as paint to craft the shit-stained likeness of Zuckerberg.  Okay then!

Unsurprisingly, KATSU said it was a messy affair and that he had to change rubber gloves every few minutes, as well as take a couple other precautions to avoid both smell and sickness.

"I had to wear a respirator and burn organic [incense] during rendering," he said, adding that human feces is surprisingly thin, so layers must be carefully added. "Too much moisture and a whole area can be wiped away with a stroke."

Maybe if he ate more fiber, he wouldn't have had that problem.

Here's the feces masterpiece. Take it in.

Although KATSU isn't the first artist to use poop in their work, he is the first (known) one to paint with it, calling the meaty medium an "overlooked resource."

Of course, the piece is for sale, but there's no promise of archival reliability, meaning that if the poop fades or crumbles, then you just spent $20,000 on some shit and that's that. If you're on the fence about the whole idea, just know that they only stink upon close examination, even though they're not covered in any sort of lacquer. Take a whiff of what the Rock is cookin'!

"We do have a collector interested in the Zuckerberg piece but we're not going to report who it is," he said. "I guess I can at least confirm that the interested party in NOT Mark Zuckerberg himself."

We're sure if it was Mark,  then he'd just limit the reach of KATSU's Facebook posts or charge him  $9 to "promote" his work. Mark is as Mark does, the shitty poop dude.
