Whimsical Torso Sculptures by Kathy Berenstein

About the Item

Add a burst of color and cheeky charm to your space with this vibrant 2002 pair of hand-painted papier-mâché sculptures by Denver artist Kathy Berenstein, signed and dated. These figures celebrate the female form with confidence and humor, adorned in Mondrian-style block color lingerie. These one-of-a-kind pieces are perfect for collectors of folk art, feminist art, or anyone who loves unique, conversation-starting decor. Fun, flirty, and full of personality! Artist's statement: "As a self-taught sculptor and painter I create forms from intuition and emotion. With gallery representation I was encouraged to study intensively formal fine art painting and sculpture. My passion is experimentation in different media, including paper mache, acrylic, rock, decoupage, chicken wire and mosaics. I work in a sophisticated whimsical style which to me is like dancing…another joy working with line, shape and color creating the visual image. Art inspires me with joie de vivre, especially when others resonate with a piece I formed."
