Mummy Art Doll Sculptures by Shain Erin

I am a sculptor, painter and digital artist. My work draws on diverse world art and cultural influences, which get mixed up and re-invented through the lens of my imagination. The result is a personal mythology that draws on and informs world history and mythology while defining it's own unique forms and traditions. My Mummy dolls are an example of the kind of artifact that result from this process.

I see the mummy figures as offerings to honor (and appease) the many restless spirits that haunt the world and I'm always amazed at the personalities that come forth in the process of sculpting their little faces. Each one seems to have a story it wishes to tell . . . as well as secrets it intends to hold against eternity . . .

I hope that they will speak to you as well.

Thanks for stopping by. After perusing this lens I hope you will meet up with me again at some of my other haunts:
