Michele Greene BA Hons (Fine Art) PGCE
I live and work from my home in Buckinghamshire. I use a wide range of media including clay, wire, cement and resin.
I also enjoy incorporating found and recycled objects into my pieces. Clay remains my favourite medium- I love it’s malleability and the close relationship that I have in modelling the sculpture so that literally hundreds of my finger prints become part of the finished work.
My themes are mostly human figures and my interest lies in capturing the life and emotions of my subjects. The stillness of the sculpture combines with a suggestion of body language and movement which I hope easily conveys to the audience. I like storytelling in my pieces and so there is often a narrative element to the work. The viewer sees a snapshot of an ongoing situation and is left to imagine the rest of the story. I am interested in the human condition, exploring inner and outer worlds through the human face and figure.
I also love the natural world which leads me to the depiction of wildlife. With these pieces I aim to capture the essence of the subject caught in a moment of time. This is often the way that we glimpse animal and birds when we see them in their natural habitat.
I am a member of Oxford Sculptors and Bucks Art Society with whom I exhibit. I also show my work at the Carina Haslam Gallery and Woburn Art Gallery.
