"I love bodies," says artist Sally Hewett. "It is not the conventionally beautiful bodies that take my eye, it is bodies which show their history, that have been altered by their experience." The UK based sculptor centers her works on the ugliness and imperfections of our bodies, and uses the prettiness of embroidery to offset how we view them. Describing her sculptures as a divide between craft and art, Hewett's sculptures play around with our perceptions of ourselves and what needs to be "fixed".
