The magical world of nature in the sculptures of Ellen Jewett

Sometimes it seems almost impossible to say something new in art. Especially if this art is associated with images of nature and wildlife. But Canadian sculptor Ellen Jewett in each of his works amazingly “weaves” animals, plants and bizarre fantasy elements, creating something truly unique and fascinating.

Ellen Jewett was born in the Canadian city of Markham and began creating her own works, including three-dimensional ones, as a child. After receiving a bachelor’s degree in anthropology and fine arts, Ellen has tried her hand at various fields: she has worked on medical illustrations, care of exotic animals and led a course on stop-motion animation for children. By the time she finished her thesis, it was clear that her academic and creative interest in biology was closely intertwined.
