I really like Lecca's work as it challenges the boundary between natural and artificial, by using an unusual style, whilst being visually interesting. The use of taxidermied animals parts to replace natural parts on plants show that not only the life stilled in the form of cut flowers, but also in dead nature by these animal parts.
'To depict inanimate natural or human-made objects, to pause time, and to encourage the viewer to reflect either on the processes of nature or on some religious or philosophical concept.'
I think once the viewer notices that the parts are in fact animal parts, it creates a big, almost shocking impact, however allows the viewer to think deeply about the message her pieces could possibly propose. In my work I want to make sure it is visually pleasing, as well as creating depth and having a sturdy meaning, or area of discussion behind it.
