Originally from Brazil, Mozart Guerra is a Paris-based artist who creates playful sculptures by weaving nylon thread over his life-like foam figures. Guerra takes advantage of the linear patterns of this chosen medium to cover his works with hypnotic spirals of contrasting colors. The highly textured pieces appeal to both the visual and tactile senses. In addition to his sculpture work, Guerra has a portfolio as a set designer for television, theater and cinema. Take a look at some of his work below.

In Amy Brener's "Omni-Kit" sculpture series, everyday objects and imagery are reprocessed into totem-like sculptures that speak to ritual and memory. These works are highlighted in a new show at Jack Barrett Gallery titled "Consolarium," a word the artist created for the place where these objects and figures across time collide into these single objects. Materials include urethane resin and foam, silicone, pigment, and more. The show runs through Dec. 20.
