Margot Robbie's new wheels? Australia's 'Sunburn Car' has terrifying Wuthering Heights-like skin interior 2/2.

This terrifying car upholstered with human-like flesh has not come straight out of a horror movie but exists to make a serious medical point. Created by Australian advertising agency TBWA\Eleven, the ‘Sunburnt Car’ features an interior – including the seats, dashboard, and door panels, covered in silicone designed to resemble human skin, complete with freckles, moles and strands of hair. Some of the moles were intentionally shaped to resemble potentially cancerous growths. The artificial skin changes colour when exposed to ultraviolet light, mimicking the effect of sunburn. The car’s interior also bears striking similarities to Cathy’s bedroom in Emerald Fennel’s recent adaptation of Wuthering Heights. The wallpaper for the room was made from a scan of Aussie star Robbie’s skin, then covered it in latex to create an effect that was one of the film’s biggest talking points. To produce the hyper-realistic finish on the car, TBWA\Eleven worked with film professionals too, teaming up with Sydney-based effects company Odd Studio, known for prosthetics and creature design work on screen. Burns and reconstructive surgeon Joanneke Maitz advised the team on scientific accuracy, and silicone surfaces were coated with photochromic pigments, colour-changing inks activated by sunlight. The creators say the level of realism has made people “uncomfortable” but that helped serve the public health campaign.
