Jessica Joslin: new exhibition of sculptural beasties

The amazing Jessica Joslin has an exhibition of her curious creatures opening tomorrow night at the Lisa Sette Gallery in Scottsdale, Arizona. Running until April 26, the exhibition coincides with the release of Joslin's new monograph, titled Strange Nature, that Mark blogged about here. Above, "Cosimo" (antique hardware, brass, bone, antique glove leather, glass eyes) and "Silvio" (turtle shell, brass hardware, beads, bone, antique vestment trim, leather, glass eyes). Link (Thanks, Kirsten Anderson!)

Christopher Moore was heavily influenced by her work, living examples of which have a supporting role in his delightful A Dirty Job.

He mentions her at the end of the book, which was a relief, because I spent the whole thing thinking to myself... I've seen these guys before...
