Today we'll have a look at what goodness artist Lana Crooks has for us, and as well you can check out more of her works on lanacrooks.com / Facebook / Instagram @lanacrooks (WIPs below via). Her works in this particular aesthetic has astounded and delighted me to no end, IMHO, and am constantly looking out for more :)




WHO-IS: "Chicago-based, Lana Crooks, is best known for her soft specimen-style sculpture. For Crooks, Mourning Apparitions is an opportunity to honor the realm of ghostly apparitions which pair well with her iconic, vintage style. We can expect to see 15-20 textile sculpts, elegantly displayed in shadow boxes, miniature museum cases, and bell jars."
