When I think of porcelain figurinces, those stupid Precious Moments knick-knacks that out-of-touch (but well-meaning grandmothers) keep in glass cases that smell like mothballs come to mind. Not these babies! Shary Boyle, in her strangely beautiful porcelain sculptures, invokes desire, adolecence, anxiety, sex, and scary fantasy worlds. Boyle is also a performance artist and painter as well as a filmmaker. She is represented by Jessica Bradley Art Projects, currently lives and works in Toronto, but has an well deserved extensive international career. Love these!
