Morena Constantinou

Morena Constantinou thinks of her sculptures as the key to the secret garden of my visions and thoughts, her looking glass! None of this was intentional. It just developed and evolved over time. All these emotions inside her and images stored in her brain suddenly become a face, a body, a sculpture. She continues to learn about herself and her material as the relationship progresses. Every piece she creates is an experiment. She is never sure of what she is going to do, or how it may change her or her work. She never knows, when she begins, what her finished piece will look like. She is captivated by the human form, by the way in which gestures and expressions can speak to us. While her sculpted figures are all different, they all have a story to tell. What inspires her? Every day life, and the uniqueness of the world we live in. The past and the future. How human beings move through many stages in their lives. Working with clay allows a direct, spontaneous and playful approach, enabling her to capture the spirit of the figure.
