Artist & Writer Catherine Coan Visits Madame Perry's Salon

Catherine Coan is an artist, hybrid taxidermist, writer, and professor living in Los Angeles. Her work has appeared in prestigious galleries in LA and across the country. She was a judge on the AMC TV series Immortalized.

Her hybrid mammals explore the intersections between nature and humanity. Imaginary creatures perch on human furniture in domestic spaces, asking the viewer to engage with the animal inside. Surprising details and a sense of humor which is at once dark and life-affirming invite guests to linger, becoming part of each tableau.
