Who could resist this sentence? 'A caricature sausage is captured in the ecstatic death-throes of its ritual sacrifice'. Weird, huh?
Well it comes from the press spiel for Nicky Deeley's latest show at Seventeen Gallery. Sounds strange, and her work is strange, but it's also beautiful, fascinating and must take bloody ages!
She makes odd-looking sculptures of dead animals - creatures composed of varying degrees of imagination and reality. From these decomposing bodies sprouts unusual multi-coloured foliage. A whole manner of materials are incorporated, including plaster, fabric, aluminium, vinyl, steel, flock, rubber, wood and enamel.
Genuinely amazing work.
Until 24.01.09.
