A Chinese artist has sparked controversy online for posting photos of himself with his late father's remains after removing the bones from his tomb.

The 33-year-old Beijing-based artist, known as Siyuan Zhuji, exhumed his father's remains and arranged them into a skeleton before lying down naked beside them for a photoshoot.

He posted the images on art website Artand and Chinese microblogging site Weibo on Saturday, a day after Tomb-Sweeping Day, China's annual festival to pay respect to the departed.

The photos drew widespread condemnation from net users, who called his actions 'disrespectful and utterly shameless.'
