Meet the French artist

 

Meet the French artist who creates strange and beautiful creatures using bread, insect parts, feathers and shells. Petra Werle uses bread to delicately mould the creatures' features and limbs. The elfin sculptures are decorated using shells, moss, feathers, body parts of butterflies, scarab beetles, larkspur moths, spider cocoons and the diaphanous wings of iridescent bugs. These bits and pieces are scavenged from entomologists, florists, at flea markets, in meadows and forests, or even leftovers from seafood dinners.
