Term 2 - Kimmy Cantrell
African-American (1957-present) is a modern sculptor who creates masks from clay. Kimmy Cantrell discovered his artistic vision in high school when he fell in love with clay in an art class. Kimmy uses many forms to tell his stories, from free standing sculptures to still life collages. He uses asymmetry to challenge traditional definitions of beauty. “I want to show the beauty within flaws,” he explains. “Imperfections tell stories that are far more compelling than perfection.”
