Kendra Haste (born 1971, UK) a contemporary artist uses galvanized wire to create life sized animals. Haste says, “Animals have held an obsessive fascination for me throughout my life. Their diverse form, nature and behaviour provide a rich and inexhaustible depth of subject. Animals have been for many years and continue to be the sole focus of my work as a sculptor.” Her most recent project was commissioned by Historic Royal Palaces to fabricate thirteen sculptures as part of an exhibition exploring the history of the Royal Menagerie at the Tower of London.
