Corrina Mensoff
Corrina Mensoff began her lifelong interest in metalworking at the age of five in her father's shop. She received her BFA in Sculpture and Metalsmithing from Massachusetts College of Art in Boston, and her MFA in Fine Arts and Sculpture from Georgia State University. In 1997, she established Phoenix Metalworks, a business specializing in sculpture, furniture, and architectural works. The artist has taught sculpture at the college level, led workshops for various age groups, and given presentations at national and international blacksmithing conferences. She has received several awards in recognition of her work, including "best in show" from the curator of MOCA GA, and an award from Icarus International. Recently, she has been incorporating various other materials with her metalwork, and occasionally working in collaboration. One of her goals as an artist is to bring people together to create social change.
