September 11, 2014 - Andrea Hasler

I found a new artist that uses grotesque imagery to fuel her work.  She creates bloody 'human' sculptures.  She renders objects such as purses, clutches, shoes, and tents out to be made of intestines and human material.  They are repulsive yet I don't want to look away.  Though the main context of her work is different than mine, I appreciate how much guts (no pun intended) she has in creating graphic and disturbing imagery.  Its the kind of work that holds the viewer's gaze, no matter his or her  opinion.
