We've featured the hauntingly beautiful sculptural art of Jessica Joslin before. A new book that features her work, Strange Nature, has just been released.
The creatures that make up Jessica Joslin's world are specimens of unknown species, captured from the collision of myth and science. They are constructed and formed through an intricate fusion of bone, brass, antique hardware and other delicate fragments. This finely wrought craftsmanship is displayed with exquisite full-color photography throughout. Jessica Joslin: Strange Nature is an opportunity to enter this artist's eccentric and wonderful world.
