Inspiration #4 - Samantha Bryan

posted by julie on Thursday, June 08, 2006

I love the work of Samantha Bryan - "She creates charming 'domesticated fairies' with machine-like contraptions, cleverly crafted from hand-dyed and stitched leather, paper-clay, wire, organic matter and found materials... Samantha takes her inspiration from whimsical childhood stories, Victorian gadgetry and the work of W Heath Robinson and Rowland Emmett.."

Wonderful imagination and I love the use of found materials.

   I like them. Great to see a fairy that is not so fairy-ish.
