About

Andrea Corson is inspired by nature, time, and new ways of seeing. In all elements of her wearable and visual art, Andrea embraces what is around her and pays close attention to form, detail, color and function, elegance and humor. 

Working intuitively, Andrea sculpts in wax and utilizes her collection of representational waxes and the ready made to make stand out, one of a kind, jewelry and objects. Using the most basic wax working tools, she forms shapes, drips tiny irregular balls, and also finds other out of the box working methods to suit her ideas. After the models are cast in metal, Andrea hand finishes the pieces, giving play to their natural and detailed elements. 

Andrea’s current works on paper and sculptures encompass a collective of ideas. The work on her photographs explores lines, shapes, objects, and relationships. The original photographs and the new images that are created, hold memories and stories of people and places; expressions and aspiration.  Andrea is continuously thinking intuitively and spontaneously with her works on paper and sculptures. She glues down anything in her home, that she does not want to keep, and especially things, that others do not pick up themselves, in combination with paint. The art becomes colorful, chaotic, and bold; a bit of history, in its own sustainable beauty.

Andrea Corson has her BFA in sculpture, from Syracuse University and her MFA in sculpture, from Cranbrook Academy of Art. She lives and works in New York City.
