Esther Siegel

Unbridled Spirit

Assemblage of found objects, repurposed materials

"[This piece was] inspired by the artist Frida Kahlo….The best thing about being an artist is the freedom to express myself nonverbally. Learning and relearning, letting go of inner judgments I have about myself, my creations, and how others view my art. I love painting and sculpting with objects."

— Esther Siegel

About the artist

Esther Siegel

American

Esther Siegel is a “later in life” artist, who emerged from working with making paper in the form of scrapbooking, paper, and card making. Once she discovered she could 'draw and paint' with objects, she was hooked. What she lacked in art education, she made up with enthusiasm and courage. Just as she has always enjoyed putting together ingredients in the kitchen to bake and cook, Esther loves the alchemy of creating interesting combinations of objects in the studio for their new and 'perfect home'. Her need for harmony, love of horses, and interest in psychotherapy are some of her themes and motivators. As a glass-half-full person, you will often see whimsy, optimism, and lightness in her art.
