- Joan Fine has been making art for more than 50 years. At the age of 81, she still sculpts every day. One of very few women stone carvers working in the 1970's, Joan embraced the physically challenging process of transforming hundreds of pounds of Carrara marble into smooth, fluid sculptures. At just under 5 feet tall, she explains "maybe it had to do with showing you can do anything in spite of your size". Frustrated by the slow process of stone carving, she experimented with materials like wood, plaster and cement throughout the 1990s. After major spinal surgeries forced her to stop working on a large scale, she again switched mediums and began sculpting in papier mâché, a material she hadn't used since her childhood. Working from her kitchen table, she's now made hundreds of whimsical characters that spring from her memories and life. Like an autobiography, the figures reflect a lifetime of travel, beloved fairy tales, social dynamics, political satire and very private spaces. A mother of four and a lifelong art teacher, Joan's youthful curiosity connects to the openness with which children see the world. Her art is both her therapy and her gift. In this intimate short film, made by her filmmaker son, Jon Fine, we have a window into the thoughts and inspiration of an artist who uses creativity to engage with the world and art as a tool for healing. In Joan's words, "while I'm doing this, I'm back in my childhood again."
