Mister Finch is an edgy textile artist, and that’s just summing it up with as few words as possible. Imagine taxidermy meeting craft, and then a touch of creepiness with a dash of cute. I’m all for things that are odd, or maybe a little bizarre and Mister Finch, you fit the bill! The work is just incredible, and you really should just browse his entire Flickr photostream to get the full array of his work. Outstanding, just outstanding!!
Scraps of thread, fabric and paper are stitched and pulled into fairytale creatures looking for new owners and worlds to inhabit. They hide in the woods, behind masks, some have died along the way and are buried under spoon lockets. Finch works alone and makes everything himself by hand in a studio full of books, glass jars and naughty cats.
