用布,纱等纺织物,以及树脂鹿角和玻璃球等等作为元素,艺术家Kelly Rene Jelinek 创造设计了一系列仿动物标本的纺织物装置设计作品。
“When I was a child, I spent most of my time with my nose in fairytale books. I absolutely marveled how the impossible was made possible in those stories: animals could talk, trees could move, and the most mundane of objects could become something magical and important. I wished that real life was like a fairytale.
This longing that I had as a child has stayed with me through the years, and I find that I am constantly trying to make “real life” more magical and extraordinary through the artwork that I create. The faux taxidermy art that I create is a great example of this: something traditional and commonplace is transformed into something new and exciting. I find that this quote from Edgar Allen Poe pretty much sums up everything that I am about: “There is no exquisite beauty… without some strangeness in the proportion.”
