Simone Racheli




Simone Racheli is a fine artist who's main body of work involves every day items sculpted to look as if it's made of meat. Meat gives the work a 'live' element and relates to abjection which will "explore themes that transgress and threaten our sense of cleanliness and propriety particularly referencing the body and bodily functions," (Tate) These elements create a sense of the uncanny in the work.
