In an age when people have become so dependent on their iPhones, artist Mio I-zawa designed a phone charger that looks like a human umbilical cord to satirize how people have become attached to them, in the same way a baby is attached in the womb of the mother.

The charger is designed with an amazingly and realistically life-like flesh texture and color which pulsates and throbs while the phone charges. The long latex that serves as the charger's cable, is what represents the artery. A pulse sensor is located at the end of the cable, which causes the device to throb like the heart when charging.

The art piece is meant to represent and signify the humans' intense attachment to technology, according to I-zawa. It embodies the growing psychological and physical union a lot of people feel for their phones.

However, many people also find the creative device eerie and creepy, with some saying that it resembles the "Thing" or the disembodied human hand that is alive and moves around in the comedic horror series, "The Addams Family."

The umbilical cord iPhone 6 charger, does not come cheap, as it sells for a whopping $6,000. Unfortunately, not everyone interested can get their hands on the charger as it meant to be an art piece and is not available for mass production.

The designer, I-zawa, is a Japanese interactive media artist who earned a degree in Tama Art University. He specializes in using flesh-like masses of material for common objects that interact with technology. Other notable art works of his include a "Mechanical Tumor" which quivers to indicate the decelerating operation of a computer, as well as the "External Heart" which throbs along with the heartbeat of the person attached to it.
