“My sculpture concerns man’s relationship to society and the boundaries of existence. It combines my love of line, texture and narrative. I try to give the figures and structures a timeless quality, textures suggestive of both ancient ruins and inner landscapes. The work reflects on the temporal passages of life, the way moments become memories fixed in our souls.”

Elaine Housman is life member of The Art Students League in New York, where she studied drawing and printing. Her education in sculpture was through the Sculpture Center, and the National Academy School of Fine Arts, both in New York.

Housman has received numerous awards for her work, including two Certificate of Merit awards from the National Academy of Design, New York City, and the Clavel Richards Award for Best Sculpture, Whitby School, Greenwich, Connecticut.
