ARLENE SHECHET

Shechet’s work is inspired by Buddhist iconography, growth and enlightenment in a variety of forms and materials. Her work includes casts of turbulent water in blue rubber, small bronze sculptures suggestive of Indian deities, and stupa-shaped ceramic vessels.

Shechet is known for her installations that reinterpret monuments, temples and cities, using innovative processes, always relating the images back to her Eastern influences. Her Installations are meditative spaces filled with a myriad of constructed vessels. Shechet states, “It is important to me that the finished piece show something profound about the process.” As with Buddhism, for Shechet, her art is very much about the journey.
