About

Sharan B works with what most people ignore: dried leaves, fish bones, stones, wood scraps. A leaf that reminded him of a cockroach became a cockroach. A fish thorn became a Venus flytrap.

His sculptures invite us to find beauty where we least expect it—and to reconsider the creatures we dismiss as pests. Life, death, memory, and overlooked wonder all live in his careful constructions.
