Destiny Allison, Sculpture
“Each of my works has a story behind it, usually stemming from life’s challenges. They address my relationships and the roles I play: daughter, mother, lover, friend, sister, business woman, consumer, artist.” ~Destiny Allison
Working in bronze, stone and steel for the past 18 years, artist Destiny Allison first fell in love with sculpting while playing with her son’s modeling clay during a moment of writer’s block and domestic frustration. Since then, Destiny has focused solely on her metal art. Dedication, tenacity, and what she calls “down-right stubbornness” have yielded her current success.
I deeply believe that what is human is complex, rich and beautiful and I hope, through my work, to help rebuild a framework for both beauty and the best of humanity,” Destiny says.
Destiny has won numerous awards and is collected nationally and internationally. Her commissioned sculptures can be seen in schools, churches, museums, corporate offices, resorts, hospitals and cities across the United States.
Recently, she installed major public works in Oklahoma and California, was featured in Southwest Art Magazine, was the cover artist for the magazine Sunshine Artists, installed 14 original sculptures in the new Four Seasons Hotel in Denver and received several awards of excellence for her innovative work in steel.
Destiny is a native of Santa Fe, New Mexico. As a young adult, she lived and studied in Washington, D.C. and Boston, Ma. She returned to Santa Fe in 1998.
