Jessi Strixner, captivates audiences with her masterful wood sculptures that imitate everyday objects, particularly clothing, with astonishing realism. A graduate and master craftsman from the Vocational School for Wood Sculpture in Munich, Strixner transforms wood into hyper-realistic garments, challenging the viewer's perception of material and texture. Her pieces, which include everything from intricately carved bras to lifelike socks and jackets, exude a tactile quality that compels viewers to reach out and touch, questioning their visual senses.

Strixner’s works play on the contrast between the softness implied by fabric and the hardness of wood, creating a visual and sensory tension. Her pieces, such as a golden jacket or a pink cap, mimic the delicate folds and textures of textiles, while their true nature—solid wood—evokes surprise and intrigue. Strixner's ability to capture the essence of these materials highlights her exceptional skill in both traditional carving and modern artistic expression.
