GREEN, Jenny

Jenny Green has been sculpting and exhibiting for over 15 years.  In 2003, she saw the light and left her corporate career to undertake a BFA (sculpture) at the National Art School. Her work is typically abstract & figurative using steel, bronze and resin.

While the media she uses may be industrial, her sculptures are light and airy. Her intent to capture an instant, a feeling, is reflected in the tension between space and material.
