Judith Davies is a professional sculptor, working in the field of art for over 40 years.  She is a teacher of sculpture, a  studio artist, sculpture conservator, and has worked in several different mediums, often in combination: cast bronze, wood, stone, and most recently in fused glass as well.  Judith has traveled a great deal. She was a Fulbright recipient for Sculpture in Italy, and received an Andrew Mellon grant for travel to Egypt, and her work reflects a continued research into ancient cultures and the insights and understanding that  those cultures can have on modern day concerns. She is also very involved with current issues of Native American rights.

The Gabrieleno/Tongva,  Indigenous people living in the Greater Los Angeles Basin for thousands of years, are continuing the fight for justIce, protections for their culture  and Sacred Sites.   

Currently, Judith is also working  with mixed media sculptures and installations that are focused on issues such as pollution of our oceans, Global warming, fossil fuel dependency, climate change and endangered species as a result of human actions.

Judith Davies  has taught sculpture and 3D Design for many years at the college level; at Wellesley College, Scripps College, Otis Art Institute, and Mt San Antonio College.  

Judith has many years of experience in the field of sculpture conservation as well.  She has worked both individually, and on teams with other conservators across the country; in New York, Los Angeles, as well as Kansas City on large-scale outdoor bronze sculptures, specializing in patination processes.

Judith has worked in the field of dance, both as a dancer, a teacher, and choreographer of modern dance, and she has studied several forms of dance throughout her career.  This commitment to dance as well as sculpture has led her to draw from both mediums at different times in her career when the opportunities arise.  She maintains an interest in collaborating on interdisciplinary projects, which may also involve costume, set, and prop design, as well as video projections for multimedia performances.  She enjoys working with other dancers to help build their visions. 

 Her present research of  the dances of other cultures focuses mainly on African and AfroCuban dance.  Judith has traveled to Cuba extensively in recent years for the study of the dance traditions in Cuba, studying with Leonor Mendoza, of the Conjunto Folklorico Nacional.
