Life Size Marble Ghost Girl Statue By Kevin Francis Gray

This is a statue of a young woman with a drooping face. A glass veil made of glass crystal beads covers her face. This weird and interesting work comes from London artist Kevin Francis Gray. He was born in Northern Ireland. The sculptures covered with various veils are his most well-known works. These sculptures are life-size. The marble has shaped a melancholy modern young woman. It looks like a familiar figure, but it is slightly lonely. Simple gray captures the feeling of marginalized young people, and the atmosphere of the sculpture hints at a mysterious and surrealist field.

The sculpture has an incredible amount of detail. When you pull up the glass bead veil, you find that behind the veil is a face with only bones. What is also disturbing is the scar on the girl’s arm, pinned to the back of the body. Therefore, such a veil is like the symbolism of tears, or a shield that keeps her away from the outside world.

The work combines the style of classicism and the aesthetics of modern cities. The artist puts the sculpture on a pedestal, as if presenting a classic Greek sculpture. Kevin Francis Gray made a series of works on this theme, the materials include resin, copper, marble, etc., without exception, each of them wears a mask. All in all, this is a group of works that give people a weird feel, but it fascinates the people who see it.
