Using the related image as an vague example can any of you guys recommend me some noteworthy photographers that are known for capturing the absurd?
Originally I was going to use the word surreal, but I think "surreal" lacks the impact and shock value that I desire.
I will also note that it does not need to be a fabrication, capture of real scenes would also be good if they fit into the category of absurd. Martin Parr on acid perhaps.

I second this. I only have creepy surreal stuff and I expect OP is looking for silly surreal.

Ruminal cannulation.
First time I hear of this.

Other than the colours on the sheep, this is a normal picture and holes like that are a real thing people do to their livestock, though I forget the purpose of them
>>2821514
Yeah I know.

Holy fuck human beings poke fucking permanent holes into other living beings' stomaches and then just let them walk around with stoppered gaping holes into their abdomen. Fucking hairless protruding-nosed monkeys poking holes in cow and sheep. If this doesn't qualify as absurd (even with the sound scientific backing/explanation) I don't know what does. Good job anon.

I've already heard about it but this is the first time I've seen it done to a sheep.
