Memy Ish-Shalom
Artist Statement:
My art responds to the personal and the universal human experience.I strive to transform these experiences into sculptures, both abstract and figurative, to capture motion and to express deep emotions. I utilize a range of mediums such as clay, resin, bronze, stone, natural and exotic wood, and I continue to explore and try out additional mediums and techniques.
