Salem Yule Marketplace Vendor
a Forest, then
Inspired by nature and a wanting to honor its magic, a Forest, then creates pieces are sort of miniature love letters. Experimenting in a few mediums, everything is lovingly created and printed in their Salem, MA studio.

Small bone and insect taxidermy strives to gently memorialize the creatures it comes from, and every creature is carefully and ethically sourced. Illustrations pull from the things loved by the artist, as well as the more difficult to describe things within them. The goal is to create each piece with love and respect, while keeping them accessible to folks who want to own art.
