Judith Shea
1948–

Introduction

Judith Shea is an American sculptor and artist, born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, in 1948. She was awarded a degree in fashion design from the Parsons School of Design in 1969 and earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree there in 1975. This dual education formed the basis for her figure based works.

Her career has had three distinct phases: the use of cloth and clothing forms from 1974 to 1981; the use of hollow cast metal clothing-figure forms from 1982 until 1991; and the creation of carved full-figure statues made of wood, cloth, clay, foam and hair from 1990 to the present.
