ARTIST STATEMENT

My overwhelming interest is the human body, particularly female, the form, the endless variations of movement and muscle and the sensual voluptuousness of its infinite shapes. Ceramics give me the freedom to develop and vary the shapes without losing the basic line … gradually the shapes become dominant and each body’s individuality acquires its own personal definition.

Feyona van Stom is the President of The Sculptors Society.  Her sculptures feature in private collections throughout the world.

2015 CHINA CHANGSHA INTERNATIONAL SCULPTURE ART FESTIVAL

Feyona Van Stom has been invited to participate in the 2015 China Changsha (Hunan Province) International Sculpture Art Festival.  Feyona’s work will become a permanent part of the city. The artists will be working in front of the public with an on-site creation.  Feyona Van Stom’s sculpture will be 3 – 5 metres tall.  After the sculpture is built it will be made in bronze.

The work created will become part of the Yanghu Wetland International Sculpture Park. Feyona will be one of 21 artists  creating work, some artists are from China and the rest will be International artists.  During 8 September – 12 October 2015 the artists will interact with the public and also give lectures at the universities.
