A Rag, a Bone, a Hank of Hair...

Reminiscent of Monique Motil's Sartorial Creatures are Tessa Farmer's "hell's angels" and "faeries". Her artwork is made out of real bits of organic debris such as tree roots, insect remains, cobwebs and animal skeletons. Her little nasties can be seen tormenting small birds and wasps and when looked at carefully it appears as if they are eating them. One piece even depicts a "faery" bursting from the inside of a bee which it has consumed. More information here
