Sarah Louise Davey’s Macabre Sculptures

A delicate mixture of the grotesque and whimsical, Sarah Louise Davey‘s clay sculptures challenge our ideas of beauty. Her nymph-like beasts are crafted to be grisly and ugly but also lovely in a visceral way. Davey says, “I question my own experience of these through the various personalities that emerge with each hybrid portrait.”
