Anatomy Lessons by Michele Beevors

Coming this winter, the National Wool Museum is showcasing an intriguing and distinctive exhibition created by Australian artist Michele Beevors.

Anatomy Lessons will captivate guests with meticulously crafted, life-sized skeletons. Each sculpture is an accurate portrayal of a real animal and is carefully measured, drawn, and moulded from steel, wire, and foam. The frame is then intricately knitted over to create these thought-provoking pieces.

The works not only stimulate contemplation about the historical aspects of collecting but also shed light on the ongoing conservation challenges faced by all species.

Originally from Australia, Michele Beevors has been practicing in New Zealand for the last 20 years. She is Head of Sculpture at Dunedin School of Art, Otago Polytechnic, New Zealand’s oldest, and one of its most prestigious, art schools. Beevors has exhibited in galleries, museums, and exhibition spaces in across New Zealand, Australia and Vienna with art that is defiant, unconventional, and moving.
