Contemporary animal sculptor Kendra Haste can create life out of rolls of galvanized wire. Making use of the material to form contoured pieces that contrast solidity with space, Haste breathes a sense of movement into her creations. She has built a whole menagerie of animals, each anatomically correct and powerfully made, as she effortlessly converts the textured wire into the muscled flanks of a bear and the scraggly mane of a laughing hyena.
