Jessica Joslin’s work might not be for the faint of heart, but it certainly is full of heart.  While most of her materials are the kind of found objects that we love to see in art, including bits and pieces of our everyday – brass findings and hardware, velvet, sequins, satin, antique toys, saxophone keys, lamp fittings, music wire – it is the artist’s unusual use of bones with these materials that sets her work apart.

    These reminded me immediately of the movie Labyrinth. A little creepy, but almost like something from a dream or a fantasy world. I love them.
