Debbie Lawson sculpts life-size animals and cloaks them entirely in ornamental Persian carpet, cutting and tucking the textile around every limb until the surface looks unbroken — as if the creatures are materialising out of the rugs mid-metamorphosis. Built over armatures of wire mesh, masking tape, and Jesmonite resin, the works in her solo show ‘In a Cowslip’s Bell I Lie’ at Sargent’s Daughters provoke questions about decoration and nature, craft and camouflage. The title borrows a line from Ariel’s song of freedom in Shakespeare’s The Tempest. Source: Colossal
