Kay Cromartie: Life Masks
July 10 – September 26, 2015

Sara May Love Gallery

Kay Cromartie creates sculptural masks using clay, paper, and mixed media. She believes the head is a vessel which contains the essence of a person, their emotions, experiences, dreams, spirit, and history. These ‘inside out masks’ visually reflect these characteristics, not only to preserve a physical likeness, but also as a view to a specific time in a person’s development.
