Margaret Keelan



"Much of my most recent work has the appearance of weathered wooden dolls. The clay has been textured and stained, the faces press molded, the hair, untidy and in complete disarray, taken from beloved, abused and abandoned dolls. As I make these sculptures my mind lingers on images of Greek classical figures, those ones that have become incomplete, but beautiful, or, African tribal wood sculpture and their practical purposes of honoring ancestors, and connecting with the spirit world." - Margaret Keelan
