Save to My OculaA softly effervescent pencil drawing by Paula Siebra; a voluptuous painted bronze, unmistakably by Rebecca Warren; a vivid, prophetic landscape by Haevan Lee; a suggestive woven wall-hanging by Francis Upritchard. Here are 20 standout works we’ve selected from our member galleries this month. Ocula’s gallery membership is by invitation-only, and overseen by a panel of international gallery peers.
