Surreal Animal Sculptures Integrate the Beauty of Earth By Ellen Jewett

Canadian artist Ellen Jewett creates wildly intricate sculptures of animals covered in a tangle of surreal embellishments. Working with a mixture of cold porcelain and polymer atop a metal wire armature, the artist describes her works as “anthrozoology meets psychoanalysis,” where tiny clues left in the feathers, fur, and tentacles of each piece lead to a greater story of its meaning.
