Lucy M. Krupenye
An award winning sculptor creates wall hanging assemblages out of found objects such as stone, wood, metal and bone. Her sculptures, which range in height from less than 1 foot to over 6 and a half feet high, are very organic and Zen in feeling. Although some are whimsical, most frequently Lucy searches for harmony among the very diverse elements. Her sculptures are often her personal reflections and meditations but they can also represent the physical reflections and counterparts that exist in nature, life and our world. Lucy is very in tune with nature and preserving the environment and she uses a lot of "recycled" material in her work. What most people consider flotsom, jetsome or garbage, she often considers treasures! Lucy's sculptures have been described by critics and gallery and museum directors as "exquisite, "eloquent", "evocative", "earthy", "intuitive", "primitive" and "emanating soul". Her Creations are most commonly inspired by nature, music and the world around her. Her sculptures are a reflection of her soul and she strives to create works of beauty, peace and tranquility in a world that is often surrounded by violence and hatred. Lucy has exhibited extensively in galleries and museums in the Northeast and New York City. She has had solo exhibitions at The Hammond Museum, The Stamford Museum, The Silvermine Guild Arts Center, as well as in many other galleries. She has been the featured artist in Westport Magazine, in many newspapers, on the cable television program Miggs B on TV and she and her work were included in the book "The Art of the Birdhouse : Portraits of Artists and Their Creations". She has won awards for her sculptures in juried exhibitions and her work is in private collections in the United States and in Europe.
