Come here, little bird


Isabelle Thibeault is a wonderful French artist who makes and photographs paper mache heads of various animals, whether feathered, flippered or furry.
The fact that not only are these creations made, but then also brought to life in obviously carefully constructed photographs and settings creates thought provoking hybrid creatures- sometimes with the being acting animalistically, and other times playing with toy cameras and guitars, drawing further attention to the human characteristic that normally seems to be lost to the focus of the mask.
Have a look at Isabelle's dozens of other beautiful masks on her blog, but bear in mind it's French and google translate will be your friend.
