]]>“I work with masks as autonomous works of art as well as action-objects,” she writes on her personal blog. “For me the mask is a place where different elements come together as situation. The work is about this place-situation, more so than the mask as a theme or category of form.”
“The mask is a place. I am led by the phantasms appearing in the process of the making and the materials themselves. These guide my decisions and inform the objects I make,” she explains.
Using textiles, ribbons, beads and the likes, her masks make for a striking statement, calling in mind a fantastical world or a fairytale setting. “I have always collected materials I find around—textiles, beads, small bits of ribbon, little ornaments and things—and I needed somewhere to put these materials to use,” Kennedy explains in an interview with Office magazine. “I don’t draw, design or plan. I sculpt and see where the materials take me. But it’s funny, I have never been particularly interested in masks as a category.”
Take a peek at some of her one of a kind pieces in the gallery below.
