I found this in my basement. I'm pretty sure it's a spider, but I don't know how he got like that.

Looked it up. The Cellar spider is prone to a fungus that lives in wet areas (like basements and cellars). The fungi slowly envelops the spider until it has earned enough of the living tissue of the spider and then the spider dies.

Maybe try some antialiasing. The edges are a bit jagged.

Likely a Louise Bourgeois sculpture. Have there been french avant garde types hanging around the house lately?
