MY CAT HAS FLEAS!!!!!!

Yes, Charlotte has fleas and it makes me want to DIE!
This piece by London based Artist Kelly McCallum makes me feel a little better. I guess things could always be worst. Kelly's work is an amazing balance of Victorian Taxidermy, Sculpture, and fine art jewelry. Although they may be slightly revolting ( I say that in the sweetest way possible), I am totally fascinated by her collections.
Here are a few pieces from 2007 and 2008

"Kelly McCallum graduated from the Goldsmithing department at the Royal College of Art in summer 2006: a jeweller’s interest in scale and attention to detail is apparent in both her wearable objects and her sculptural pieces. Her work is influenced by both story-telling and natural history, employing Victorian taxidermy as well as insects, precious metals and other treasures from her personal collection of curiosities."
