Becca Barnet / Sisal Creative
“We believe any storefront, lobby, café, museum, hotel or wall at home can be artful and spark conversation. Our art has a dual purpose: it solves problems and evokes emotion.”
Charleston, SC
We’re artists-for-hire. We create transformative installations and spaces – whether in a home, business or public space. Our studio is run by partners Becca Barnet and Kaleigh Hastings. Becca’s work is driven by a fascination with natural history and preservation. A graduate of the Rhode Island School of Design with a BFA in Illustration, she also attended the Missouri Taxidermy Institute where she ne-tuned her special knack and patience for taxidermy repair – from cleaning to complete mount renovations. She’s put her precision and passion for replicating textures and preserving animals into the creation of an array of museum displays.
Kaleigh studied Landscape Architecture at the University
of Florida. Her healthy appreciation for the natural world
and insatiable interest in learning new skills led her to Sisal Creative, where she handles everything from concept design and fabrication to project management. She believes that the intersection of natural history, cultural identity, and a tiny bit of mischief is where the best stu happens.
Behind the core studio team is a small army of skilled and trusted craftsmen + women, recruited speci cally for each project’s needs.
