Kendra frorup biography

“Collecting is part of the making,” states sculptor Kendra Frorup about her artwork. Frorup was born and brought up in Nassau, Bahamas and uses her memories of this time in her art. After a childhood in the Bahamas, she welcomed the opportunity to study in the United States and began to create representational images that showed a commonality with her culture.

Gil DeMeza, one of her former professors at the University of Tampa, describes Frorup as “the collector.” He said that her “unique ability to take the old, the used and discarded and turn them into other worldly, incalculably exquisite moments in time is a magical talent.

Her creations are works, which exhibit both poignancy and invigorating humor. Her outgoing, friendly demeanor is as infectious as is her art while giving us pieces that are at once funny, elegant, scary, and crude.
