Women & Their Work is pleased to present a solo exhibition of new sculptures by Houston artist Elaine Bradford titled Freaks of Nurture. With colorful crocheted sweaters, Bradford transforms taxidermy animals into sculptures infused with warmth and comfort. Using yarn, Bradford reincarnates animals into a life of bizarre coziness. Like a circus sideshow, Bradford’s sculptures are both sad and amusing, straddling the line between strange reality and comfortable, warm nonsense.
