Emily Mayer who sadly passed away in April 2022, developed a methodology for sculpture that bifurcated between repurposed materials in figurative assemblages and employing innovative taxidermy techniques to create sculptures of animals and birds.
She returned time and again to found and recycled objects to create her work, using traditional construction techniques. A piece of rubber inner tube or the vice-like plastic clamp from a work bench trick the eye into believing the appearance of a wing or a webbed foot, but it is the angle of a head or the sharp accuracy of a plumbing tool for a beak that sets Emily’s distinctive touch.
