« My work has been a personal narrative, which alludes to tales, dreams and nightmares. I bring my drawings alive in 3D. My work is often life-size or larger; a chair will stand a metre tall. The work has been of a domestic nature, taking inanimate objects such as chairs and layering them with emotion. As I build up piece by piece, I have created rooms with atmosphere where unexpected feelings arise from apparently mundane objects.
I work very instinctively, one piece leads to the next, I try not to pin down what I am doing or even why. I have to trust and believe that I can communicate through this medium.
My searching is never complete; each piece is a journey for answers that are only hinted at, with more questions.
I predominantly work in clay but use other materials when I feel it is necessary: glass, string, wood, raffia and mirror. »

claire-morgan – aerial taxidermy art
« My work is about our relationship with the rest of nature, explored through notions of change, the passing of time, and the transience of everything around us. For me, creating seemingly solid structures or forms from thousands of individually suspended elements has a direct relation with my experience of these forces. There is a sense of fragility and a lack of solidity that carries through all the sculptures. I feel as if they are somewhere between movement and stillness, and thus in possession of a certain energy.Animals, birds and insects have been present in my recent sculptures, and I use suspense to create something akin to freeze frames. In some works, animals might appear to rest, fly or fall through other seemingly solid suspended forms. In other works, insects appear to fly in static formations. The evidence of gravity – or lack of it – inherent in these scenarios is what brings them to life, or death. »
Steampunk Taxidermy Art by Lisa Black. Sculptor, Jeweller and Artist based in Auckland, New Zealand, born in Australia in 1982.

Her love of animals and their form, combined with a preoccupation with an imminent future where technology and biology are intimately combined, led her to create her ongoing series of modified animals.
By creating beauty within this supposed paradox, she challenges the concept of a world separated into the ‘sacrosanct’ natural and ‘vulgar’ industrial.
Kate Clark, L’ animal est un homme inexpressif * et je reste dubitative de son travail, n’étant absolument pas fan de la taxidermie en général. [animal is an expressionless man]
Kate Clark is a sculptor who lives and works in Brooklyn, NY. Her work studies the tension between personal and mythical realms by creating sculpture that synthesizes the human face and the body of wild animals.

Kate Clark – taxidermie art sculpture animal / Human details
« Son concept est né lors de ces études, à l’université d’Ivy League, en lisant le livre « Becoming Human : Evolution and Human Uniqueness » de Ian Tattersall.
Elle s’attarde sur un chapitre sur l’évolution du visage humain. Cette partie du livre traite des changements spécifiques ayant eu lieu sur le faciès humain avec le temps tels que le visage imberbe, le blanc des yeux, les sourcils, … et en quoi ils ont permis de faciliter la lecture d’une grande variétés d’expressions faciales.
Ces oeuvres sont créées à partir de vraie peau animale. Pour la création des têtes, elle sculpte les visages de ces oeuvres de manière à ce qu’elles soient crédibles et réalistes.
Les sections de peau qui recouvrait auparavant le visage de l’animal sont rasées de leur fourrure et apposées sur le visage sculpté en prenant soin de faire concorder, par exemple, les cils et les paupières de l’animal avec le pourtour des yeux humains. Cette peau rasée rappelant, par son côté huileux et poreux la peau humaine pour plus de réalisme bien que les coutures et points montrent un travail de reconstitution. Il a fallu de nombreux essais pour qu’elle soit capable de trouver l’équilibre entre les traits faciaux animaux et humains.«

Crystal Beads Taxidermy by Kohei Nawa.
Japanese sculptor and assistant professor at Kyoto University of Art and Design, Kohei Nawa is known for his pixcell series, where countless transparent glass beads encase the artwork objects.
Strange.
« Most of the motifs, like stuffed animals are found through the internet. I search some auction sites and choose from the images which appear on a monitor as pixel. However, the stuffed animals which actually have been purchased and sent have real flesh feel and smell, and have a discrepancy with images on the monitor. I then transpose them to PixCell in turn. »
