I would have no problem with it - IF the skin had been left by people with the intention of making art.
What bothers me is that the artist is making a political and a racial statement out of people who selflessly donated their bodies so that the rest of the human race could benefit. And he is using their gift to make a statement about how awful America is, Americans are, white Americans behave.
No. Wrong.
Now, if you really want to be controversial, make a statement about crime using the skins of people killed on Death Row. Or about gang culture using skins of people shot on the streets of cities with gang related killings. Or about drugs using junkie hides.
Don't take completely unrelated skins and try to say something about a whole country.
Grrrr. And I'm pretty liberal in my definition of art.
This is something I would not go to see. This is misrepresentational. If that is a word. If I want lies and generalisations I can read a newspaper.
BTW - Clod. You're not thinking of home schooling are you? Only I kinda worry about your idea of a project
