Description
unique one of a kind soft sculpture

Since childhood, Kerry Green has always been creative; painting, drawing, sculpting, and sewing. Her family provided her with materials and encouraged her efforts. She literally grew up in her parents’ art galleries, and with them toured the U.S.,
Europe, Mexico, Japan, and New Zealand, seeing museums and visiting artists’ studios. Growing up in Arizona and New Mexico gave her the opportunity to explore the Native reservations there where she has made life-long friendships. Several of her very early influences were Dr. Harry Wood, chair of the Arizona State University Art Department, and National Medal of Arts sculptor, Allan Houser who both showed their work at Glenn Green Galleries, and the contemporary Hopi jeweler, Charles Loloma. These artists exchanged ideas and demonstrated their working methods with her.

Now she draws, sews, and creates abstract sculptures in wood and metal. About her colorful & inventive soft sculptures, “Free Range Critters”, Green says: “In my mind these hybrid free-range critters originate in the high desert canyons around Los Alamos, New Mexico, home of the atom bomb. I imagine that these new species evolved from nature doing its best to adapt to human interventions. They thrive as stylish, happy, windswept creatures with the highest security clearance.”

Her metal sculpture relates to the landscape and ever-changing weather patterns in the Southwest.
