CAROL ALLEMAN
USA
 In late 2001, Carol Alleman expanded her artistic visions in clay to include lost wax casting in bronze. Embracing the alchemistic nature of this ageless material and highly crafted process, she created her first bronze vessel Miracles. Thus began the mystical and organic Tree of Life and Nature Vessel Series. Her signature, museum-quality work encompasses highly evolved, intricate patinas within the vessel form. Companion Writings accompany each bronze - presenting an integrated literary and visually complete work of art. The companion writings contemplate thoughts and questions on the philosophies of life, the human condition and the countless mysteries of nature. Combining the written word with her growing forest of bronze vessels, Carol additionally inspires audiences through her inspirational presentations and poetry readings. She is a gentle and encouraging Gardener of the Soul.
Carol’s artistic inclination combines her ability to transform emotion into word and object through her own curiosity, love of nature and life experience. The common thread, both in the approach and work itself, directs her mystical life journey. She exhibits across North America while realizing an international collector base. Her work is greatly appreciated by a highly diverse base of collectors: especially those with a love of Tiffany, Art Nouveau, Arts and Crafts, Traditional, Asian and even Contemporary design.
Born in rural Pennsylvania, Carol Alleman obtained her degree in Art Education from the Pennsylvania State University (PA/USA) and continued graduate studies at the Lancaster Theological Seminary (PA/USA). Most recently, she has completed studies with various contemporary artists at the Scottsdale Artist School, Scottsdale, Arizona.
