Phantasmagorical Sculptures Merge Plant and Animal Life By Ellen Jewett
on Etsy shop/ DeviantArt
At young age Canadian artist Ellen Jewett was already obsessed in taking shapes of three dimensional forms. Ellen is a lover of life and the mechanisms of both art and nature leading her to make a phantasmagorical and surreal animal sculptures. To Ellen, sculpting has always been about life; biological narratives, emotions, movement, balance and observations about life’s subtleties and overtures. Her aesthetic ranges from the hyper-real, to the surreal,fantastic, and the grotesque. Ellen’s works are incomparable, resulting from her creativeness are her strange and unique sculptures.
Her artwork is deeply informed by an extensive background in anthropology, medical illustration, exotic animal care, and even stop-motion animation, all of which accentuate the biological structure of each piece, while freeing her imagination to pursue more abstract ideas.
“I find my sculptures are evolving to be of greater emotional presence by using less physical substance,” she shares. In addition, she eschews any potentially toxic mediums like paints, glazes, and finishes, opting to use more natural, locally-sourced materials. “This, unavoidably, excludes most of what is commonly commercially available, and has sent me on a journey of unique material combination and invention.”

It’s wrong, it’s not disturbing; this is remarkable work.
It is well stipulated to subscribe to this blog only if you are art connoisseur!
Which is apparently not your case.
So when you do not know a discipline correctly, you abstain from giving your opinion, out of politeness and respect for the work of artists!
It is also written not to give a mixed opinion coming from an inexperienced person, who is really more than subjective ?!
Your emoticon does not take anything away from your
profane remark.

Oh. I didn’t mean to offend anyone. It gave me a disturbing feeling, that’s just me, it doesn’t alter the fact that it is a remarkable piece of art. I apologise if I am being inexperienced and if you think that my comment was a profane remark, although I think that that’s a strong word.

Very cool art!😊 I think all the art you show on your blog is both different and cool. It’s good with new, boring when the art goes in the same old track.
