A third
generation artist and sculptor, Mary Collier lives
and creates her exceptional masterpieces in Virginia Beach,
Virginia. Her stunning pieces are a compilation of her unending interest
in the human form; its connection with mythological and spiritual
worlds; symbolism and daily rituals of present and ancient cultures
including those found in the Northwest, Arctic Coast and of her
homelands of the Southwest.
At first
glance, her pieces are often mistaken for carved stone. However through
Mary's many years of commitment, experimentation, and crafting of her
techniques - she has developed an innovative way of enhancing the beauty
and strength of unglazing clay while embodying her spirit and soul
into each and every piece.
Mary loves
teaching and has been active in her local art guild for many years.
She became well known within the local area and has been featured in
several books, including one from Korea. Ms. Collier's pieces would
be a powerful and vibrant addition to any collection.
