Tessa Farmer
Born in Bimingham in 1978, Tessa Farmer is a contemporary artist who today lives and works in London. She completed her BA in 2000 and her MA in 2003 from the Ruskin Shool of Art, Oxford and today she has work in collections worldwide, including the Ashmolean Museum and Saatchi Gallery.
Farmer uses bits of organic materials - leaves, roots and dead insects - to create tiny macabre sculptures and unsettling dioramas. Simultaneously beautiful and horrible.

I saw two of Tessa's works at the opening of Slump City at Space Studios on Friday evening. They really are stunning - delicate, painstakingly produced and visually mesmerising.
