Etta Winigrad
From the very beginning, my sculptural work has been a continuing exploration and attempt to illustrate ideas and concerns of the human condition, both whimsical and serious.
The sculpture is partially figurative so as to allow the viewer an easily grasped element for introduction into the work. By combining realistic and fantastical elements I hope to encourage the audience to draw upon their own imagination and life experiences for interpretation.
My influences come from African, South Pacific and Pre-Columbian art. I especially like the simpler primitive shapes that speak to us so powerfully and seem to tap into those forms that we have genetically accumulated in our psyches.
