Artist profile:
Heidi Kujat, sculptor

Heidi Kujat’s exceptional talent as a sculptor revealed itself after she embarked on a personal journey exploring her passion for the arts and her deep sense of spirituality.

After completing degrees at Queens University in Ontario, Canada, Heidi travelled extensively throughout America, Mexico and Asia. Opportunities presented themselves for Heidi to learn and to grow and ultimately, to discover that through the art of bronze sculpture she was able to express her love of people, earth and sky.

Her extraordinary female forms are unique goddesses that offer pure emotions of love, joy, generosity, gratitude, compassion, grace, hope and faith. Nature is of utmost importance, and it is in nature that Heidi spends a great deal of her time, drawing from the vast reservoir of universal knowledge and personal experience.

“My passion lies in the ability to transform emotion into symbolic creations that inspire and uplift,” says Heidi. “I believe that art is not a competition bur rather it's about honouring the creative flow. We each have our own gifts and through collaboration we become an appreciator, creator and a facilitator.”

Her working process is one of meditation and involves great patience – each piece often involves months of work. Heidi is extremely committed to keeping her energy clear and centred to translate the purest intentions into her sculptures. Lost wax originals are worked by Heidi’s own gifted hands and moulds are made. These inspiring bronzes are then cast, passing on to the appreciative eye or the serious collector, her heartfelt love for all those who connect with her work.

Heidi Kujat lives and works in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
