Impression in Clay: LeRoy Transfield
Opening Reception: 6-9 pm, June 13, 2024
Exhibit: June 14 – July 25, 2024
The new exhibit, Impression in Clay by sculptor LeRoy Transfield, opens at the Jacob Spori Art Gallery. Please come join the artist at 6 pm – 9 pm on June 13.
Transfield sculps mainly figurative works with an impressionistic style, and his figures are alive with the artist’s hand and tool marks on every piece. His works embody the telling of human stories, the sense of precious life, and his fervent understanding of faith that will take visitors on a spiritual journey.
LeRoy Transfield is a Maori native of New Zealand who has also lived in Australia and Singapore. Living in different countries nurtured his love of people and cultures. This impacted Transfield’s work so that his works are mainly human figures, especially people of various ethnicities
Transfield has created veteran’s memorials, works for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, the World War I Commemorative Silver Dollar for the US Mint, and many other notable pieces. Transfield hopes to travel and live amongst the people of the Pacific area to document the cultures of Polynesia in sculpture. Discover his other work here.
