ABOUT THE ARTWORK

"Damariscotta" is a clay sculpture that was inspired by the oyster middens found along the banks of the tidal estuary that is the Damariscotta River and left there by Native Americans. I was inspired by the beauty of the delicate, flaking layers of shells that have survived for thousands of years. In making Damariscotta, I hand-formed pieces of clay and placed them in thin layers to replicate my vision of the bleached oyster marvel.

About the Artist: Kelly Moeykens is known for her commitment to processes, Moeykens creates abstract wall sculptures, paintings and found paper works. Moeykens work is most recognizable for their evocative texture, technique and materials used. She manipulates material over and over again, to see what it is capable of becoming, where it might lead, and how it will migrate from an object to something surreal or sublime. Kelly currently lives and works in Midcoast Maine. Statement: My works are driven by process, that it is only natural for me to be intrigued by the mediums I use. I am drawn to the tactile experience of it all; there is a physical aspect to interacting with my work that I want to convey with each piece. I want each individual viewer to have a unique emotional response and my work to give rise to their own memories and connections.
