Donna Conklin King

Concrete sculpture by Donna Conklin King

King explores concrete as a medium, often casting forms from food containers, tin ceiling tiles and fabric. Embodying the philosophy of Kintsugi, her sculptures become artifacts, openly cracked and repaired, suggesting resiliency, history and archeology.
